Warped Tour Is Back: Dates Announced For Three 2025 Events

With a post on Instagram declaring “we are so back,” Warped Tour has announced dates for its 2025 return with events planned in Washington, D.C.; Long Beach, California; and Orlando, Florida.

The fun starts at The Fields At RFK Campus in Washington, D.C., June 14-15. In July the festival heads to Long Beach for a July 26-27 stop at the Shoreline Waterfront and in November Warped Tour lands at Orlando’s Camping World Stadium Campus Nov. 15-16.

The lineup is still not announced but the presale is set for Thursday, Oct. 24 at 9 a.m. PT / 12 p.m. ET.

Two-day passes will be priced at $149.98 and each city will host between 70 to 100 bands, according to a report from Rolling Stone (via AV Club).

The news comes just a few days before When We Were Young returns to Las Vegas Oct. 19-20. When We Were Young debuted in 2022, many were quick to compare the festival, with its lineup packed with emo, pop-punk and alternative rock bands, to Warped Tour. The 2024 edition of WWWY, featuring two one-day events with the same lineup each day, includes performances from My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy, A Day To Remember, Jimmy Eat World, Dashboard Confessional, Taking Back Sunday, among many others. As RS and AV Club point out, tickets for Warped Tour are quite reasonable compared to When We Were Young, which is priced at $325.

It is unclear whether Warped Tour will be adding more dates to satisfy fans who are nostalgic for Warped Tour’s famed days of traveling across the U.S. with more than 30 stops.

Warped Tour founder Kevin Lyman confirmed last month that Warped Tour would return in 2025, marking the traveling festival’s 30th anniversary. At the time he simply told Polltsar, “We have something cooking for 2025. Details should be ready in a few weeks.”

Lyman graced the cover of Pollstar in 2018 in honor of the final fully-fledged, cross-country Warped Tour, which wrapped in early August of that year at Coral Sky Amphitheatre in West Palm Beach, Florida The trek played 38 shows and grossed more than $19.4 million, with 542,908 tickets sold. The tour placed at No. 64 on Pollstar’s 2018 Year End Top 200 North American Tours and No. 99 on Pollstar‘s Year End Top 100 Worldwide Tours.

In celebration of Warped Tour’s 25th anniversary, Warped Tour put on events in three cities in 2019: Cleveland; Atlantic City, New Jersey and Mountain View, California.
