Rockzilla tour featuring Papa Roach is coming to Hamilton

Hamilton’s alternative rock fans will be excited to hear that Rockzilla – The Second Leg is heading to FirstOntario Centre on Thursday February 2, 2023!

The tour will be co-headlined by Papa Roach and Falling in Reverse, with Hollywood Undead and Escape the Fate as the openers.



The Hamilton date will follow the tour’s inaugural show in Rochester the night before, and is one of four Canadian stops along with Abbotsford, Edmonton and Calgary.

California’s Papa Roach were one of the most successful rock bands of the early 2000s. Their major label debut album Infest peaked at number 5 on the Billboard 200 and went on to go triple platinum in the United States the following year.

Their massive hit Last Resort hit number 1 on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart, and the follow-up singles Broken Home and Between Angels and Insects also charted.

The band helped pave the way for other angsty alternative rock groups to find a wider audience in the 2000s and beyond.

Co-headliners Falling in Reverse formed in Las Vegas in 2008. Their debut album The Drug in Me Is You debuted at number 19 on the Billboard 200 and was certified gold in the United States.

The band have since released 3 more albums which have received multiple awards from Alternative Press magazine.

Hollywood Undead formed in L.A. in 2005. Their album Swan Songs debuted at number 22 on the Billboard 200 and featured the hit single Everywhere I Go. They are currently promoting their latest album Hotel Kalifornia.

Finally, Nevada’s Escape the Fate formed in 2004. Their breakthrough album This War Is Ours debuted at number 35 on the Billboard 200 and sold 13,000 copies in its first week.

The tour follows Rockzilla’s first leg – dubbed the Rockzilla Summer Tour – which kicked off last July and featured heavy metal band Bad Wolves in an opening spot instead of Escape the Fate.

Don’t miss your chance to see all 4 of these alternative rock bands in one monster-sized concert next week!

Tickets are available NOW at Ticketmaster or in person at the FirstOntario Insurance Brokers Box Office at FirstOntario Centre.
