By That Festival Site | 10 October, 2025
With just days to go, When We Were Young Festival has unveiled the full set times and official site map for its 2025 edition. Returning to the Las Vegas Festival Grounds across the weekend of 18th and 19th October, the massive emo and pop punk celebration features the same lineup on both days, now spread across four distinct stages.
Two late lineup changes have also been confirmed, with Chiodos and Drain newly added to the bill. They replace Sleeping with Sirens and Never Shout Never, who have withdrawn from the event due to reasons outside of organisers’ control. Chiodos returns with a fan-favourite catalogue, while Drain injects fresh hardcore into the already high-energy lineup.
Headliners blink-182 and Panic! at the Disco will anchor the festival, the latter performing their landmark album A Fever You Can’t Sweat Out in full for its 20th anniversary. The all-day schedule also features Weezer, Avril Lavigne, The Used, All Time Low, The Offspring, Knocked Loose, The Gaslight Anthem, Taking Back Sunday, Bad Religion, Alexisonfire, Jack’s Mannequin, and dozens more.
With set times and the full site map now available, fans can lock in their plans and get familiar with the festival layout—including stage locations, entry points, and amenities—before gates open. With four stages of music, countless reunions, and iconic albums performed live, When We Were Young 2025 is set to be a weekend to remember.
