The 2018 (and final) Vans Warp Tour reveals its lineup

After twenty-four years as a summer tradition–Who are we kidding? It’s been a rite of passage for several generations!–founder and organizer Kevin Lyman is pulling the pin on the Vans Warped Tour. This next roadtrip will be the last.

Kevin wants to go out with a bang, so he called up a bunch of bands that cut their teeth on the tour over the years. As you can see by the poster below, fans will get to see Reel Big Fish, Simple Plan, Sum 41, All Time Low, Four Year Strong, 3OH!3, Less Than Jake, Underoath, We The Kings, The Used and more.  Frank Turner, Silverstein and Four Year Strong are also part the plan. Kevin also promises “additional special guests TBA.”

Tickets will go on sale March 8.
