They also played newer tracks from their recent album Power to Play like "Where Did All the Guitars Go?"

In a special twist, their longtime collaborators and friendly rivals, Busted, made a surprise appearance, crashing the show and playfully challenging McFly to a joint tour in 2025. This interaction added a layer of fun and anticipation for what’s next for the band. Fans were treated to a walk down memory lane, as McFly reflected on their incredible journey while keeping the energy high with their signature mix of pop-punk and rock.
