Win tickets to see Mayday Parade

We’re giving away a pair of tickets to the Manchester Academy 2 gig

Published on April 21st 2011.

Florida punk rockers Mayday Parade are bringing their first ever UK headline tour to Manchester Academy 2 on Wednesday 25 May. Tickets are selling fast but this is not one to be missed for fans of the five strong outfit’s unique sound.

Since releasing their debut EP in 2006, without a record label, and selling 20,000 copies, Mayday Parade have been garnering critical acclaim and a huge fan base to match. The group are fast becoming stars on the scene after touring with punk pop giants All Time Low last year.

Mayday Parade’s second album ‘Anywhere But Here’, released September 2010, achieved number 31 on the USA’s Billboard chart, and the band are currently working hard on a new album expected this summer.

Tickets cost £12.50 and are available here.
