Vans Warped Tour is making a comeback in 2025 in celebration of the festival’s 30th anniversary. The much-loved punk and alternative music fest returns for three two-day events in June, July and November next year.
A statement released by Vans Warped Tour founder Kevin Lyman says of the festival’s return, “People are craving connection, live music, and the raw, unfiltered experience that Warped has always offered. We’ve seen how music continues to unite and inspire, and this return isn’t just about nostalgia—it’s about giving a new generation the chance to feel that same sense of belonging and freedom that Warped has always championed.”
The first festival takes place in Washington, D.C. at Festival Grounds at RFK Campus from Friday, June 14 to Saturday, June 15. The following month Vans Warped Tour heads to Shoreline Waterfront in Long Beach, California from Saturday, July 26 to Sunday, July 27. The final leg of the tour takes place in Orlando, Florida at Camping World Stadium Campus from Saturday, November 15 to Sunday, November 16.
Between 70 and 100 bands covering a wide range of genres, including punk, rock, alternative, emo, and more, will perform at the festival. Although the lineup has yet to be revealed, the festival dates and ticket prices are online, with full weekend passes starting at $149.98 ($119.99 ticket + $29.99 fees), roughly A$225.
