What Had Previously Been Said About Warped Tour Expanding Beyond 2025
Back in October 2024, Warped Tour founder Kevin Lyman shared in an interview with Rolling Stone that he was hesitant to bring Warped Tour back as a full-fledged touring entity. “My body won’t take riding around on a tour bus for 40 cities,” he remarked at the time.
However, he did share within the discussion that if the three-date 2025 edition of Vans Warped Tour was successful, he was open to the idea of adding more dates.
Who Played the 2025 Vans Warped Tour?
It was a pretty solid mix of Vans Warped Tour nostalgia and abiding by the tour’s long-running banner of championing up-and-coming talent.
Veteran acts such as 311, Asking Alexandria, Avril Lavigne, Bowling for Soup, mgk, Miss May I, Senses Fail, We Came as Romans, A Day to Remember, Black Veil Brides, Falling in Reverse, Of Mice & Men, Saosin, Attila, Escape the Fate, I See Stars, letlive., Story of the Year, the Red Jumpsuit Apparatus and Thursday all made appearances.
