The touring alt/punk rock festival will consist of two-day swings in three cities: a stop in D.C. at the Festival Grounds at RFK Campus from June 14-15, then two days in Long Beach, Calif. at the waterfront in Shoreline Village from July 26-27, and the final stop in Orlando, Fla. at the Camping World Stadium Campus from November 15-16.

The lineup hasn't been announced yet, but festival founder Kevin Lyman told Rolling Stone that the lineup will include 70-100 acts. 

How to get tickets to the 2025 Vans Warped Tour in Washington, D.C.

Tickets go on sale Thursday, October 24 at noon Eastern (there are two options for two-day passes, VIP and General Admission). Passes for the full weekend start at $149.98 (including fees).

The last Warped Tour took place in 2019.
