Vans Warped Tour will return to Washington, D.C., in 2027, with organizers confirming that the two-day festival will take place June 19 to 20 at Festival Grounds at RFK Campus. 

The announcement comes after the festival’s recent stop in the nation’s capital and marks another year for the revived event in the city.

“It’s a pleasure to be back in Washington, D.C., bringing Vans Warped Tour back to the city,” founder Kevin Lyman said in a statement. “D.C. has always had an incredible music culture, and we’re thrilled to welcome fans from across the region for a weekend packed with energy, discovery, and unforgettable performances.”
