The Vans Warped Tour gained notoriety as the largest traveling music festival in the United States, and the longest-running touring music festival in North America. Originally conceived by founder Kevin Lyman in 1995 as an eclectic alternative rock festival, with a focus on punk rock, over the years the tour grew to include a multitude of genres, including metal, hip-hop, reggae, pop and more. By its end in 2019, it had earned a reputation as one of the best tours to attend to discover emerging acts, to learn more about meaningful nonprofits and companies who are working to make a positive impact on the world that surrounds them, and to meet like-minded friends.

Over its 30 years, Vans Warped Tour built a legacy as the must-attend summer festival for rock and music lovers alike. Since its start in 1995 it provided a platform for established as well as up-and-coming artists, with past performers including BLINK-182, NO DOUBT, SUBLIME, Beck, Katy Perry, NOFX, LIMP BIZKIT, BLACK EYED PEAS, GREEN DAY, Eminem, YELLOWCARD, BAD RELIGION and countless others.
