Grab your tickets while you still can—Tokyo Police Club is bringing its farewell tour to Vancouver’s Commodore Ballroom for two nights this weekend. The Ontario-based indie rockers have been making waves since their breakout 2006 debut EP, A Lesson In Crime. Nearly two decades later, they’ve announced their disbandment, but not before giving fans one last unforgettable tour.

The farewell romp comes on the heels of the band’s latest double single, “Just A Scratch”/“Catch Me If You Can”, alongside a summer of festival performances. The tour will crisscross North America, ultimately wrapping up with four sold-out nights in Toronto.

For these Vancouver shows, they’ll be joined by fellow Canadian band Born Ruffians, making this a must-see sendoff for longtime indie-rock fans.
