Event producer Cameron Collins of Brew Ha Ha Productions said: "It's awesome to watch this festival grow and develop each year. Punk In The Park has quickly become one of the most well-attended and celebrated punk rock festivals in the world. PENNYWISE was the first band I ever approached about this festival, and they've been such amazing supporters and friends…I am so stoked to have them back! DESCENDENTS…I mean, does it get any better? This lineup is insane TOP TO BOTTOM on both days. I can't wait to drop the rest of it in the coming weeks. OH! I am also really excited to be bringing our buddies Vans on board this year who will be out in force with their vert ramp, adding that extra umph to the show that only they could."

Last year's Punk In The Park in Orange County drew nearly 20,000 fans over two days for sets by DROPKICK MURPHYS, BAD RELIGION, FACE TO FACE, THE BOUNCING SOULS, a surprise performance by THE VANDALS, and more.

Earlier this year, Punk In The Park Ventura made its debut as a one day event at the Ventura County Fairgrounds, with a lineup led by PENNYWISE and SUICIDAL TENDENCIES.
