It has been a few months since the announcement that the Vans Warped Tour will be making a stop in Montreal on 21-22 August, at Parc Jean-Drapeau on St-Helen’s Island (Île Sainte-Hélène).
And starting on 30 January, the Vans Warped Tour has been announcing the artists in the lineups; one to three bands disclosed each day for 30-ish days . The first band confirmed was Jimmy Eat World.
Since then 30 artists have been reported, with many blanks still left in the lineup list. The lineup now includes notable highlights such as Simple Plan, Sublime, Flogging Molly The Anti-Queens, as well as a plethora of indie favourites.
Most of the artists put together a little video clip highlighting their announcement, and Simple Plan was no exception with their usual hilarity.
These announcements will continue for another couple of weeks, and are first released on the Vans Warped Tour social platforms. When the full line-up is revealed in mid-March, artists will be listed alphabetically, a tradition that keeps the focus on the collective experience rather than headliners.
Vans Warped Tour weekend tickets are currently available for purchase at starting at $237.00 (taxes and fees included) for Montreal.
