Punk Rock Bowling & Music Festival is back for its 19th year, inviting punk rockers from all generations to join them for four days in downtown Las Vegas. This years lineup features Discharge, Cock Sparrer and of course the “Godfather of Punk Rock” Iggy Pop.
The festival is set to go down May 26th- May 29th. Three days of outdoor festival preformances begin Saturday afternoon. Fans not only get to experience nine incredible bands each day, but PRB also has three separate bowling centers, a poker tournament, art exhibits and movie screenings. And it gets better, for fans who prefer to be in a more intimate setting rather than be surrounded by 1000’s of fellow punk rockers, four late night shows will be hosted in smaller venues. Being “one of the longest standing punk festivals in the country” PRB year after year delivers a lineup that features some of the biggest names in punk rock, including NOFX, The Descendants,Devo, Bad Religion and so many more. Open to all ages, PRB is definitely one music festival that can’t be missed.

Bonus pass and VIP tickets are also available through Eventbrite (link to purchase tickets below.) Don’t want to go all three days?
