The band announced the tour, which is being presented by Hot Topic, via a post on their official Instagram page:

Presale tickets are currently available and can be accessed via the code BVBARMY. General tickets will be available from June 2, 2023, at 10 am local time.

Dark Divine to join Black Veil Brides on tour

Alongside Ville Valo, the tour will also see performances by the band Dark Divine. The band is best known for their single, Halloweentown, which has over 260k views on YouTube.

In an exclusive interview with Consequence, Black Veil Brides discussed the upcoming tour, saying that they "can't wait to work with Ville Valo." They said:

"We cannot wait to join forces with Ville Valo and give both of our audiences in North America an unforgettable experience each night... We couldn’t be happier now that we can finally share the news. Ville is an icon."

Ville Valo added:

“There’s something tinnitus-inducingly romantic about the idea of being sandwiched nightly between Black Veil Brides and Dark Divine on this autumnal trek across North America. And imagining us explore the architecture of doom and gloom from three distinctly different musical perspectives has already made the bats in my belfry suitably ravenous.”
