Their hits have defined the sound of a generation. For nearly three decades they’ve been the voice of the underdogs, the dreamers, and the outsiders who found an anthem in every chorus. Untitled Group is beyond thrilled to announce multi-platinum rock royalty, Good Charlotte, will return to Australia in February, 2026 for the Motel Du Cap World Tour, marking their first shows down under in eight years and the first shows announced on their epic world tour!
The Motel Du Cap World Tour celebrates the release of their highly-anticipated eighth studio album of the same name, a record that captures the rawness of their early years with the authority of artists that have conquered global stages.
“Australia is such a special place to Good Charlotte and to me personally, it feels like a home away from home in many ways, and we can’t wait to head back there for some big shows. It’s been far too long since we’ve spent time with our Aussie fans, we’re all in for a big treat,” says Joel Madden.
Please note that the Auckland show is not an Untitled Group show.
