Matchbox Twenty Announce One-Night-Only Show At The Fonda Theatre On Monday, October 12

Ticket Registration Now Open

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 2 – Today, Matchbox Twenty announced a special, intimate show at Fonda Theatre in Los Angeles on Monday, October 12. The one-night-only show marks the beginning of a yearlong celebration of Matchbox Twenty’s 30th anniversary, honoring three decades of music and milestones throughout the band’s career. The show will feature songs from their debut album Yourself or Someone Like You alongside other fan favorites. Additional plans celebrating the landmark anniversary will be announced in the coming months. 

Released in 1996, Yourself or Someone Like You introduced Matchbox Twenty (Rob Thomas, Brian Yale, Paul Doucette and Kyle Cook) to the world and launched a career that has now spanned three decades. Featuring smash hit singles “3AM,” “Push,” “Real World,” “Back 2 Good,” “Long Day” and more, the diamond-certified, 12x-platinum album became one of the defining rock records of the era and established the band as a fixture of pop culture.

Selected fans will receive invitations beginning Wednesday, October 7, with the first ticket on-sale beginning Thursday, October 8.

Earning hits in each of the last three decades, Matchbox Twenty have gone from dominating radio airwaves and ruling MTV to piling up billions of streams. They’ve sold more than 40 million records worldwide, topped charts, garnered multiple GRAMMY® Award nominations, and played to millions of fans across arenas, amphitheaters and stadiums on multiple continents.

In 2023, the band released their first album in 11 years and fifth overall LP, Where The Light Goes (Atlantic Records), once again delivering a collection of real, relevant and relatable songs recorded with GRAMMY® Award-nominated producer Gregg Wattenberg. That release was followed by the hugely successful Slow Dream Tour, which spanned 2023–2024 and sold out venues worldwide. Night after night, the band delivered career-spanning sets, proving their songs don’t just endure, they evolve, continuing to connect across generations with the same urgency and power as ever.
