Warped Tour has announced their latest lineup for their 2016 outings. The long-running festival has always featured the best of old and new pop-punk music.
Over the years the festival has become one of the biggest musical endeavors each and every Summer, consistently drawing sold-out crowds in every city it appears in. This year’s lineup is apt to satisfy all fans of pop-punk as older bands (Yellowcard, Good Charlotte) are featured alongside recent up-and-comers (State Champs, Bad Seed Rising). This variety certainly covers all bases, and allows all fans old and new to get their money’s worth.
Also as per usual, Warped Tour will be hitting just about every major geographical destination for live music nationwide. The tour will start in Texas, before incorporating Midwest and East Coast runs before finishing in Portland in mid-August. The festival and the music that it features has always fit well in the Summer months, and this year will be no exception.
Warped Tour tickets are on sale now. The first 500 tickets purchased will include a 50-song Warped Compilation download.
In contrast to the many camping-based festivals that have permeated the Summer music scene in the past decade or so, Warped Tour is, and always has been, a one day event beginning around 11:00 A.M. and ending at 9:00 P.M. While this may disappoint some potential ticket buyers, the event always features enough bands to make up for it, usually as many or more than a typical weekend camping festival.
With all the transition and innovation that has been presented in the pop-punk genre in recent years, the more value a traditional festival like Warped Tour provides. Whether it’s old favorites from the MTV era, or more progressive-laden modern favorites, it features something for every fan of the genre. Given that it takes place in the Summer months makes it one of the clear can’t miss festivals this season.
