2018 was supposed to be the final year for the legendary Warped Tour, but it looks like it will be returning in 2019 for its 25th anniversary. It won’t be a full cross-country tour, but Warped founder Kevin Lyman tweeted on Monday that “plans are coming together” for a 25th anniversary event.
Plans are coming together for @VansWarpedTour 25th only thing I can say for now since many need to hold vacations dates are June 8 Cleveland, June 29-30 eastcoast, July 20-21 westcoast.

No details or bands have been announced, but Lyman passed along these dates – “June 8 Cleveland, June 29-30 eastcoast, July 20-21 westcoast”.
And Twitter did what Twitter does:
Warped Tour: Sorry guys this is the last year of Warped Tour
Emos: Wat no no no no no no no no no
Warped Tour: JK ITS BACK
Emos: weird flex but ok— Alex-is-very-emo (@Trashemofam) December 17, 2018

Warped Tour made it so clear they weren’t done when they kept saying “Last cross country tour” and people are STILL surprised they announced dates on each coast

The same people surprised Warped Tour isn't dead will be surprised when the Marvel Netflix shows or characters are renewed
