When We Were Young returns to the Las Vegas Festival Grounds on October 19th and 20th and brings fans the opportunity to hear some of their favorite albums in full, a rare occasion, from bands such as My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy, Tonight Alive, Sleeping with Sirens, Pierce the Veil, and many more. For two days in a row you can switch which bands you see per day, or repeat sets, the choice is yours as the lineups are the same on both days and runs from 11 AM to 12 AM, with set times and the festival map yet to be released. Vans Warped Tour founder Kevin Lyman will also be reliving memories and meeting fans at the Punk Rock Museum on Oct 19 and 20th, there will also be a free public market with vendors, food trucks, and yet-to-be-announced special events open from 10AM to 6PM on Oct 19-21st. Some of the sponsorship activations at the festival this year include About Face, Eargasm, and Hot Topic to help fans get beauty and photo-ready, and have access to protective hearing as we all know how crucial it is to wear ear plugs when exposed to loud enviornments.

Several side-show events were announced leading up to the festival Oct 17-18th featuring artists such as 3OH!3, Cobra Starship, The Used, Neck Deep, and more, and take place at a variety of venues in close proximity to the Strip such as BleauLive Theater at Fontainebleau and Brooklyn Bowl at the Linq Promenade, and off-strip venue Area 15. Emo Nite will help close out the festival with late night shows post-fest on Oct 19-20th. Tickets for the side-shows are available for purchase here.
Fans will be traveling from all over the country to attend this special weekend, and if you haven’t bought tickets yet, night one may be sold out (minus a VIP waitlist) but there are still GA, GA+ and VIP tickets available for Oct 20th which can be purchased here. Looking forward to seeing the pure excitedness and nostalgia this weekend brings to Las Vegas when When We Were Young returns in a month’s time.
