Mpls: AFI at First Avenue (May 2, 2026)
May 2

Fan-favorite AFI is back with Silver Bleeds the Black Sun… (Run For Cover Records), and doing a tour (their first tour since 2021) in support of the record. The tour will stop by First Avenue, on May 2, 2026, with Choir Boy as support.
The ticket limit is strict. Any attempt to exceed the posted ticket limit per customer or household, or to game the system in any way, will result in cancellation of orders without notice. There is a transfer delay for all tickets prior to the show.
We saw AFI in Feb 2017 and said, “As for AFI, they started in 1991, led by singer Davey Havok. Currently the band features only two original members, Havok and drummer Adam Carson. The band broke mainstream success with Sing The Sorrow in 2003, but the truth is that they already had millions of fans leading up to their breakout album. Of course, like most bands that started very young, Davey Havok’s influences changed over time… particularly moving away from their hardcore punk roots to something more like “Alt Press” type sound. Still, hearing AFI’s fans all sing to every song, including new songs, tells me a lot about their fanbase. They are a hardcore, dedicated fanbase and they love every AFI songs, from old to new.”
Choir Boy to open.
