Chain Fest is back with a new date and throwback lineup featuring Jimmy Eat World, Taking Back Sunday, Circa Survive and more. The fest was initially scheduled to take place in 2020 but has been pushed back twice now due to Covid-19. Jimmy Eat World recently kicked off their virtual Phoenix Sessions, which will highlight their albums Clarity, Futures and Surviving over three days in January and February. Chain Fest will also feature Circa Survive playing songs from Blue Sky Noise, Saves The Day playing their greatest hits, Glassjaw playing songs from Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Silence, and Cartel playing songs from Chroma. Additionally, Anberlin and Acceptance are also on the bill.

Chain Fest was initially scheduled to take place on May 23, 2020, was then pushed back to October 17, 2020 and now has a new date. The festival released the following statement on Twitter: “Chain Fest at FivePoint Amphitheatre has been rescheduled to Saturday, May 29, 2021. Your ticket will be honored for the new date or if you can’t make it, you’ll be able to request a refund. We’ll email ticket holders directly with details.”

If the mega ’00s throwback lineup isn’t enough to sell you, you’ll be thrilled to learn that 50 cents of every ticket sold for
Chain Fest will be going to Living the Dream Foundation to help make dreams come true for kids and young adults living with life threatening illnesses. Grab your tickets and get ready to re-live the ’00s!
