Panic! at the Disco is set to headline the highly anticipated When We Were Young festival in Las Vegas in 2025, alongside the iconic band Blink-182. This nostalgic emo and rock festival is scheduled to take place on October 18, 2025, and promises an exciting lineup that includes renowned acts such as Weezer, Avril Lavigne, the Offspring, the Used, All Time Low, and Knocked Loose.
Fans are left speculating whether this performance will mark a reunion for Panic! at the Disco, which has largely operated as a solo project for frontman Brendon Urie since 2015. In January 2023, Urie announced his decision to discontinue Panic! at the Disco to prioritize his family life and care for his newborn child. The When We Were Young festival will be the band’s first performance since March 2023, making it a significant event for fans.
As part of their performance, Panic! at the Disco will showcase their acclaimed 2005 album “A Fever You Can’t Sweat Out,” which features their iconic hit “I Write Sins Not Tragedies.” This will be a special treat for fans, as the festival will also include rare performances from other beloved bands such as Never Shout Never, the Cab, the Rocket Summer, and Jack’s Mannequin. The lineup continues to impress with names like the Gaslight Anthem, Bad Religion, Yellowcard, Simple Plan, Taking Back Sunday, and the Story So Far.
Tickets for the When We Were Young festival are set to go on sale on November 1, and eager fans can find purchasing information on the festival’s official website. The festival, which draws its name from the famous Killers song, began in 2017 in Santa Ana, California, before evolving into a large-scale event at the Las Vegas Festival Grounds. Previous headliners have included major names like My Chemical Romance, Paramore, and Fall Out Boy, solidifying its reputation as a must-attend event for music lovers.
The excitement surrounding this festival is palpable, and with such a stellar lineup, it is sure to be a memorable occasion for fans of the emo and rock genres. As the date approaches, attendees can look forward to reliving the nostalgia of their favorite songs and experiencing live performances from some of the biggest names in the industry.
