After over four decades on stage, NOFX played their last-ever concert this past Sunday in Los Angeles, officially closing the chapter on their legendary Skatepunk career. For two hours, Fat Mike and co. delivered a thrilling show—a wild mix of classics, deep cuts, and the signature NOFX humor. Special guest appearances by legends like Tim Armstrong (Rancid) and Brett Gurewitz (Bad Religion) added some extra sparkle to the night.
Legends Take Their Final Bow: A Farewell Full Of Highlights
This last concert marked the pinnacle of their farewell tour, which began in 2023 and included a total of 73 shows. The band powered through their discography, delivering fan-favorites like "The Decline" and rare gems like "Shut Up Already", stirring plenty of nostalgia. Fat Mike also surprised fans with a brand-new song, which he announced would never be played live or released again—a personal thank-you to the fans who had stuck with NOFX for 41 years.

Even though Fat Mike made it clear that there will be no reunion, NOFX still managed to say goodbye in their typical style: plenty of alcohol, dark humor, and raw emotion. The mood on and off the stage was both celebratory and bittersweet. After hugs and final words, the band took their final bow amidst roaring applause and disappeared backstage—for good.
“We’re not coming back in 2028, that’s it,” said Hefe. Fat Mike, with a shaky voice and tears in his eyes, added: “That’s it, guys, thank you! All your love… we’re not doing this like fucking Black Sabbath. You have no idea how grateful we are. Thank you all.”
Skatepunk Loses an Icon
With the end of NOFX, the skatepunk scene loses one of its most influential bands, a group that has carved their place deep into the hearts of fans worldwide. This concert wasn’t just a fitting farewell but also an emotional journey for everyone present. NOFX won’t be forgotten anytime soon.
