As well as coming over to the UK for a trio of shows in August, Jimmy Eat World have announced an extensive Bleed American anniversary tour on their side of the pond.

The Arizona heroes will hit the road throughout North America, bringing along various special guests including Sunny Day Real Estate, Thrice, Motion City Soundtrack and more. Along the way, they’ll also take in every date of the 2026 edition of Vans Warped Tour.

“I feel like at this time in our lives, especially for me, it’s important to get back to a place that you can savour,” explains frontman Jim Adkins. “This tour is designed to be an elevated version of our show, a heightened experience with production that reflects 25 years of learning how to stretch artistically in the live environment.”

Throwing things back to 2001, he continues: “When we printed the last mix of Bleed American, we felt like we had achieved something great for ourselves. There was no barometer of how it would connect with people outside of the studio, and we are still in awe with the life the record and songs have had since their original release. Bleed American is as much yours as it is ours, so we want to celebrate it with you all in a very special way.”
