Vans Warped Tour Long Beach is underway, and the 30th anniversary event is heating up – and we’re on ground covering it all live.
From surprise onstage collabs to crowd-killing headline sets, Vans Warped Tour Long Beach is stacked with moments worth watching on repeat. The air is thick with sunscreen, sweat, and the kind of nostalgia that hits harder than a breakdown in 2007. You’ve got legacy acts ripping through old favourites, next-gen bands proving their place, and a sea of Vans sneakers kicking up pit dust from morning til night.
Away from the main stages, the atmosphere at Warped Tour Long Beach is just as charged. Pop-up zines, bands slinging their own merch out of their individual tents, and acoustic sets fill every spare corner. It feels like the old Warped in all the best ways. Even if you weren’t there in person for the original run and only saw the best moments from grainy Tumblr footage back in the 2000s, or archival MTV footage before that, the feeling is that of an event that never left and has truly retained its DIY alternative energy.
Blunt Mag is on the ground all weekend, buried in the pit, side stage, and wherever the action takes us. We’ll be bringing you live updates, unfiltered crowd shots, and all the sets you’ll want to claim you saw first. Kick back, relax, and watch all of the highlights from your couch – it’ll be like you’re there in the pit with us.
Keep checking in for rolling highlights, exclusive interviews, and the real story from Warped Tour’s wildest weekend in years. The top moment so far? Tony Hawk joining Goldfinger on stage for a special rendition of ‘Superman’ that brought with it all the Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater nostalgia – all while skaters tore up the vert ramp in the background.
Check out our social highlights below from Warped Tour Long Beach so far. We’ll be updating this post as we get more footage from the day – so make sure to check back regularly to stay in the loop.
