When We Were Young Festival 2025 Adds Second Date with Major Headliners

Published February 26, 2025

When We Were Young festival 2025 has made exciting news for fans of emo and alternative music. After a sell-out success in its first round, the festival organizers have announced a second date, allowing even more fans to enjoy the lineup of iconic bands. This year, the event will take place at Las Vegas Festival Grounds on both October 18 and 19, 2025.

Although some negative feedback was received last year from groups like the All-American Rejects, the swift sell-out of the first date showed that fans are still eager to be part of the experience. This positive response from the emo community has led promoters to add a new day to the festival, ensuring that more music lovers can join in.

The lineup for the second date remains unchanged, featuring a host of legendary acts that define the genre. The updated festival flyer reveals that headliners will include Blink-182, Panic! At The Disco, along with other popular artists such as Weezer, Avril Lavigne, and The Offspring.

Tickets for the newly added date will go on presale this Friday, February 28, at 10 a.m. PT. Fans should be prepared, as tickets are expected to sell out quickly again. Those interested can find more information and details on how to purchase tickets on the festival’s official site.
