A Unique Festival Experience

Last year, When We Were Young showcased a fresh approach by having most of its lineup perform an entire album from their discography across the two days. Some standout albums included:

• My Chemical Romance’s The Black Parade
• Jimmy Eat World’s Bleed American
• A Day To Remember’s Homesick
• Dashboard Confessional’s Dusk And Summer

This unique format gave fans an extraordinary nostalgia trip, and it's likely that this year will follow suit!

Merch Mayhem

In other festival news, the official merch t-shirt went viral for all the wrong reasons when fans noticed that several band names were misspelled! Some amusing examples included The All-American Rejects being printed as The All-Amercian Rejects and New Found Glory misprinted as New And Glory. It’s a classic case of “you had one job!”

As the festival approaches, excitement is building. Will you be attending both days? If you're a pop-punk fan, this is the event you cannot miss!
