Warped Tour Returns for 30th Anniversary with First Wave of Artists Announced

The iconic festival will feature 70-100 bands across three cities, with lineup announcements continuing over the next 30 days.

The Vans Warped Tour is making a comeback in 2025 after a six-year hiatus, celebrating its 30th anniversary with festivals in Washington D.C., Long Beach, and Orlando.
The first wave of artists announced includes Simple Plan, Bowling for Soup, Pennywise, Miss May I, Dance Hall Crashers, and newcomer Chandler Leighton.
Some acts, like Pennywise and Miss May I, will perform at all three locations, while others, such as Simple Plan, will appear exclusively at specific cities.
The full lineup, featuring 70-100 bands, will be revealed through a '30 Days of Warped' campaign, with daily updates running until February 26.
Festival founder Kevin Lyman emphasized the focus on both nostalgic acts and emerging talent, with lineup posters organized alphabetically to spotlight all artists equally.
