Hawthorne Heights 2026 If Only You Were Lonely 20th anniversary tour: Presale code, dates, venues, and more explored

Rock band Hawthorne Heights is officially set to hit the road in 2026 for a special tour to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their second album, If Only You Were Lonely. The emo and post-hardcore act will perform the album in full each night. They will be joined by Letlive and Creeper on select dates.

The upcoming trek has been officially titled the Lonely World Tour. The band will perform one of the most beloved records of the mid-2000s emo era. Hawthorne Heights announced that this tour will be the first part of a celebration. Hence, more dates and regions are expected to be added later.

Hawthorne Heights frontman JT Woodruff shared a message about revisiting the band's past two decades:

"The best thing about looking back on the last 20 years is that you can do it without the fear of the past, but with the reverence that comes with the time that has actually passed. I feel like all of the noise of that time period was drowned out by the panic and stress that we were living under when creating If Only You Were Lonely. The pressure of creating a second album was almost too much to enjoy the magic we were creating, or even thinking about it as magic at all."

Hawthorne Heights frontman also added:

"We will be playing the entire album, with a career-spanning setlist, that is a full-on rollercoaster ride designed to make you forget what you are going through alone, while hopping in the car so we can all go through it together. Whether you are coming for a night of everlasting nostalgia, or prepared to exercise some lifelong demons, you will be in a room full of people who are ready to share this experience, as life is supposed to be shared. Together."
