After announcing their Twilight of the Punks Tour with an LA date at Dodger Stadium, Fall Out Boy surprised fans this afternoon with a special text inviting them to “The Twilight Town Mall” for a surprise show in Los Angeles, tonight.
The Fall Out Boy secret show is happening tonight, Tuesday, Nov. 10, at Koreatown Plaza in Los Angeles, which the band has transformed into the “Twilight Town Mall” for a so-called grand re-opening. Doors are at 6 p.m. and the show starts at 7 p.m.
How the Fall Out Boy Koreatown secret show was announced
Around 1:15 p.m. today, fans signed up for Fall Out Boy’s text list got a message that read, “Surprise, Los Angeles. The Twilight Town Mall is real. We’re playing a show tonight!!” The text included an RSVP link and a warning that space is extremely limited. Only selected fans would get a confirmation, with the location and details sent later in the afternoon.
The RSVP ran through a Partiful event called “Grand Re-opening of the Twilight Town Mall w/ Fall Out Boy,” hosted by Twilight Town Mall, complete with a glowing green-moon mall logo.
The band’s nod to twilight doesn’t seem like an accident, either. The surprise mall show lands just a day after Fall Out Boy revealed the Twilight of the Punks Tour, which brings the band to Dodger Stadium on Saturday, Aug. 21, 2027, with The Offspring, Good Charlotte and The Story So Far. Presales kick off tomorrow, Wednesday, Nov. 11, at 10 a.m. local time, and Grimy Goods broke down all four Fall Out Boy presale options and how to get a presale code if you’re trying to score stadium tickets.
Confirmed fans received a follow-up text blast this afternoon with the location and entry rules. Here’s what you need to know if you got in:
- Where: Koreatown Plaza (the “Twilight Town Mall”), Los Angeles
- When: Tonight, Tuesday, Nov. 10. Doors at 6 p.m., show at 7 p.m.
- Check-in: Confirmed guests line up at 928 S. Western Ave. for wristbands.
- First come, first served: Entry is subject to capacity, and a confirmed RSVP does not guarantee entry.
- No wristband, no entry: This is an LAPD/LAFD requirement, so there are no exceptions.
- Don’t line up inside the mall: Do not enter or line up inside Koreatown Plaza. Follow staff instructions.
- Getting there: The band is asking everyone to use rideshare.
Didn’t get confirmed for the Fall Out Boy secret show?
There is a standby line for fans who weren’t confirmed, but the band is being upfront that entry is extremely unlikely. If you’re heading to Koreatown anyway, keep your expectations in check and be respectful of the mall, its businesses and staff.
If you missed out on tonight’s Fall Out Boy secret show in K-Town, your next shot at seeing the band in Los Angeles is the Twilight of the Punks Tour stop at Dodger Stadium next summer. The first presale begins Wedneday, Nov. 11 with several more presales following.
Good luck to everyone who got that lucky text! Enjoy the Twilight Town Mall!
