Punk Rock Bowling & Music Festival will finally be turning 21, and as it becomes old enough to legally drink, it has just announced its 2019 lineup, featuring a verifiable who’s who of punk history. The event will occur at the Downtown Las Vegas Event Center, taking place over Memorial Day Weekend on May 24 through May 27.
To celebrate, some truly incredible names in the annals of punk history have decided to grace the festival as its headliners, including artists like Rancid, Descendents, Refused, Flag (a reincarnation of Black Flag with some of its original members), The Specials, The Stranglers, and The Hives, among many others.
Other acts that are no less important to punk today, and fans are truly lucky to be able to see in one place, include acts like The Damned, FEAR, Fucked Up, Shame, Adolescents, The Vandals, The Undertones, Perkele, Dead Boys, Street Dogs, The Casualties, and many more. With a second stage being added (finally) this year, a total of 16 bands will be playing each day.
As always, the festival not only features an incredible lineup of bands, but will also play host to a variety of events including bowling, poker tournaments, pool parties, and many more.
Check out the full lineup below on the festival flyer.
