The Warped Tour was a traveling rock tour that had toured the United States (including 3 or 4 stops in Canada) annually each summer from 1995 to 2018. Spanning 24 years, it became America's longest-running touring festival concert tour and reached approximately 500,000 fans every summer. The Vans Warped Tour was conceived as a platform for music and diverse lifestyles to co-mingle and thrive in an atmosphere dedicated to music fans of punk, alternative, hip-hop, ska, pop punk, electronica, alternative rock, emo, hardcore and more. Warped is also responsible for introducing music fans to such artists as No Doubt, A Day To Remember, Katy Perry, Blink 182, All Time Low, Sleeping With Sirens, My Chemical Romance, Eminem and Fall Out Boy, among hundreds of others, as well as creating the blueprint for concert tour sponsorship integration that is now used throughout the festival industry today.
