Avril Lavigne, Greatest Hits tour brings 2025 shows to Germany

Avril Lavigne brings her pop-punk catalog back to European arenas with the Greatest Hits tour. According to tour listings and venue announcements, the run includes German dates in Berlin and Cologne in September 2025 alongside shows across Europe and North America.

Where Avril Lavigne plays in Germany

The strongest anchor for fans based in Germany is the pair of shows on the Greatest Hits tour scheduled for Berlin and Cologne. Current venue and ticket listings indicate that Avril Lavigne is due to perform at a major arena in Berlin as well as a large indoor venue in Cologne in September 2025, underlining the country’s importance on her route.

These German stops sit within the European leg of the tour, which also includes cities such as Paris, London and Amsterdam. For local fans in Berlin and Cologne, the concerts mark a rare chance to see a full hits-focused live set from one of the defining pop-rock voices of the 2000s.

How the Greatest Hits tour is structured

The Greatest Hits tour is conceived as a survey of Avril Lavigne’s career from her debut album Let Go through later records such as Under My Skin, The Best Damn Thing, Alice, Goodbye Lullaby, Avril Lavigne, Head Above Water and Love Sux. International ticket listings show a route that starts in North America, moves through the UK and continental Europe and then connects back to further North American dates.

Setlist reports from earlier shows on the run indicate that the concerts typically feature more than 20 songs, mixing breakthrough hits like Complicated and Sk8er Boi with mid-career singles such as Girlfriend and later tracks from Love Sux. This breadth of material positions the tour as both a retrospective and a present-day showcase of how the early-2000s pop-punk sound has evolved in her hands.

Where the act stands

Avril Lavigne’s Greatest Hits tour currently has its next announced German live date listed in September 2025 in Berlin, with a further show in Cologne on the same European leg according to venue and ticket platforms.

The musical core of Avril Lavigne

Avril Lavigne emerged in the early 2000s as a key voice in pop-punk and pop-rock, pairing guitar-driven arrangements with melodic hooks and direct lyrics. On early albums such as Let Go and Under My Skin, she worked with producers including The Matrix and Butch Walker, establishing a template that mixed punk energy with radio-friendly choruses.

Later records such as Love Sux leaned back into a heavier pop-punk sound, aligning her with a new wave of pop-punk revival acts while keeping the focus on catchy, compact song structures. Across the catalog, her vocal delivery and guitar-forward arrangements remain core elements of the sound that the Greatest Hits tour now presents live.
