The Vans Warped Tour 25th Anniversary is a Birthday Bash You Won’t Want to Miss

After wrapping up its final cross-country run last year, the longest running and largest traveling music festival in the U.S. will soon gear up to celebrate 25 years of longstanding history, groundbreaking achievements and of course, great music.

For while our summers will likely never be the same without its countless days of sweaty Pop-Punk and Alternative-Rock bliss, the Vans Warped Tour is determined to leave fans with the birthday bash of the century.

And with 50+ rotating performances from industry legends such as Blink 182 and The All-American Rejects, as well as heavyweight icons ranging from Thrice to August Burns Red, the tour is set to do just that.

Additional attractions will include a skate ramp with skate demos, freestyle motocross, wrestling, and a special curated collection by Lisa Johnson (rock photographer) exhibiting art of, and inspired by the tour. The Ohio date will also offer fans the unique opportunity to experience a special exhibit titled, “Forever Warped: 25 Years of Vans Warped Tour.” This showcase will include documents and special memorabilia such as instruments from Fall Out Boy and Rancid as well as stage clothing from Joan Jett and Ice-T, which celebrates both the history and growth of the tour since its formation back in 1995.

And with the recent release of their eighth studio album, Artificial Selection, as well as 2019 stand-alone single “Head Hunter”, Dance Gavin Dance is a can’t miss act at Shoreline Amphitheatre.

THRICE

Much to the delight of fans, rock legends, Thrice, will join the Vans Warped Tour for both the California and New Jersey stops along the historic 25th Anniversary celebration. And after the release of Palms, the band’s 10th studio album, Epitaph Records debut, and most sonically diverse record as of yet, we can’t wait to see what Thrice has in store for us this summer!   

Listen to the full album: http://bit.ly/2N2IHQf "Hold Up A Light" by Thrice from the album 'Palms,' available now Order at http://thrice.net Lyrics Hold up a light, steady and bright - cut like a knife through the cold and dark. These eager flames can't be contained - cities are claimed by the smallest spark.

MEMPHIS MAY FIRE

Download, purchase and stream "Broken" here: https://RiseRecords.lnk.to/Broken I've been broken, i've been beat down, so full of shame & doubt. Been from the mountain, down to rock bottom more times than I can count, but we were born to be great. Don't just throw it away. You've been hiding this pain for so long.

Consisting of Matty Mullins (vocals), Kellen McGregor (guitar), Cory Elder (bass), and Jake Garland (drums), Texas-based metalcore quartet, Memphis May Fire, are definitely a band to keep on your radar at Shoreline Amphitheatre. Formed in 2005, the group has released five studio albums and two EPs as of yet, and continue to showcase why they are a clear fan favorite for Warped Tour this year.
