Vans Warped Tour, the iconic touring festival that made a 30th-anniversary comeback last year, is returning to five cities this year, including Orlando.
Rather than giving fans the satisfaction of an all-at-once lineup drop, the music event is slowly peeling back the curtain on this year’s bands during the next “30-ish days,” according to the event’s Instagram, through social-media announcements.
Jimmy Eat World, who started playing with the Vans Warped Tour in 2001, was the first band revealed on Instagram and Facebook last Friday. Dance Gavin Dance, New Found Glory, Glassjaw, The Early November, Bryce Vine, Big Ass Truck I.E., Holy Wars, Girlfriends, Third Eye Blind and Anthony Green have all been announced since then, most playing multiple stops including Orlando.
The Story So Far is playing in Washington, D.C., and Mexico City this year, while Winona Fighter and Papa Roach are both playing in Long Beach, California, and Mexico City. Atreyu is playing in Montreal and Mexico City with “new music in tow.”
This year’s festival kicks off in Washington, D.C., in June before heading to Long Beach, Calif., in July, Montreal in August and Mexico City in September. Vans Warped Tour is back in Orlando Nov. 14-15 at the festival grounds outside Camping World Stadium.
All three cities hosted sold-out crowds last year, including 80,000 fans per day in Orlando. The comeback inspired this year’s Vans Warped Tour dates and an international expansion with the addition of Montreal and Mexico City.
