The Vans Warped Tour is making a comeback in 2025 to celebrate its 30th anniversary. The much-loved punk and alternative music festival returns for three two-day events taking place across North America in June, July, and November of this year.
After months of hype, the festival has begun drip-feeding the lineup, with the first batch of artists announced including Simple Plan, Bowling for Soup, 3OH!3, Pennywise, Miss May I and State Champs.
The lineup also features Of Mice & Men, CKY, We Came As Romans, Senses Fail, The Barbarians of California and many more acts.
The full lineup will be revealed over the coming 30 days, with the final announcement arriving on February 26. Vans Warped Tour is set to feature between 70-100 bands, although not every band is performing all three dates.
Speaking about the Vans Warped Tour bill, founder and organizer Kevin Lyman says, “Putting together a lineup is never an easy task, but each act, both new and returning, plays an important role in delivering an unforgettable experience for fans, especially at the price point we're offer. We collaborated closely with the bands to create some exciting surprises, exclusive content, and more for fans to enjoy. So follow along, soak in the journey, and who knows—you might just discover your next favourite band!”
