The wait is over! Vans Warped Tour is officially getting ready to take over the Shoreline Waterfront in Long Beach on July 26 & 27, 2025 for its massive 30th anniversary celebration. After a hiatus since 2018 and their legendary east coast return this past June, the FOMO is real and the west coast wants our turn.
With a stacked lineup featuring A Day To Remember, Falling in Reverse, Dropkick Murphys, Hawthorne Heights, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, and the newly announced hometown headliners Sublime, this is shaping up to be the biggest music event in Long Beach history. 85,000 fans are expected to attend per day, according to Mayor Rex Richardson.
