U.K’s prince of anthemic pop-punk, Frank Turner, is always in good company, and this mid-week gig is no exception. Descendents, elders of the scene, top the bill, but get there early for Nobro.

The Montreal punk outfit has one of the most raucous live shows on the continent and plays a nostalgic hybrid of ‘70s and ‘90s rock, plus saw its 2023 LP Set Your Pussy Free win a Juno award for Rock Album of the Year.

Tickets to see Descendents play Jannus Live in St. Petersburg on Tuesday, Feb. 24 are still available for $58.
