Discover the Exciting Features of This Year’s Vans Warped Tour Program

The founder of the Vans Warped Tour, Kevin Lyman, has enlisted the talented Josh Bernstein from Z2 to craft the custom manga-sized collectible guides for fans this year. Bernstein has a rich history of collaboration with the Warped Tour, having previously contributed to similar programs for notable events such as Mayhem, Uproar, and Taste of Chaos Festivals. This partnership guarantees a high standard of quality that fans can expect from the program.

Reflecting on the significance of the program, Lyman expressed, “Back in the day, the Vans Warped Tour program was more than just a guide—it was a snapshot of a moment in music history. Fans used it to plan their day, note set times, collect autographs, or simply feel a part of something larger than themselves.” He emphasized that reviving the program is more than a tribute to the past; it’s about recreating that immersive experience for a new generation who also deserves something tangible to connect with.

Bernstein, along with Erik Rodriguez, has designed the cover art for this year’s program, which creatively reimagines a 1960s-themed Warped pool party. This artwork pays homage to the legendary BBQ parties that have been a staple of the Warped Tour experience for its performers. Notably, the cover art features a diverse representation of the 2025 lineup, including artists like Avril Lavigne, Ice-T, Johnnie Guilbert, mgk, and members of A Day To Remember, All American Rejects, All Time Low, Black Veil Brides, Dance Hall Crashers, Dropkick Murphys, Falling In Reverse, Ice Nine Kills, Motionless In White, Rise Against, Simple Plan, Slaughter To Prevail, Sublime, The Funeral Portrait, The Interrupters, and the late Lou Dog. Naturally, the BBQ event is headlined by the iconic Pennywise.

Expressing his gratitude, Bernstein remarked, “We can’t thank Kevin and the entire Insomniac Team enough for this opportunity. Producing the Vans Warped Tour Guide again for all these fans and brands is truly a dream come true. Long live print!”

The Vans Warped Tour Guide has also been expertly edited and written by Rabab Al-Sharif and Mackenzie Hall, featuring exclusive interviews with over 25 bands, highlights of emerging artists, and spotlight segments on charity partners. Additionally, the guide includes a comprehensive rundown of activities and valuable tips on things to do in each Warped city, all contributed by the participating artists.

Notably, the guide showcases the remarkable artwork of Jimbo Phillips, who is responsible for all the stunning 2025 Vans Warped Tour art and logos that have been unveiled so far. Additionally, Luke McGarry, an underground cartoonist from Z2, has created a captivating series titled “Warped Memories”, which features humorous comics spotlighting the tour’s most famous alumni. These comics include amusing scenarios such as Mark Hoppus showering with a hose, Paramore’s Hayley Williams meeting My Chemical Romance’s Gerard Way, Black Veil Brides’ Andy Biersack meeting his future wife Juliette Simms, and the infamous incident where Kevin Lyman had to expel Sublime from the inaugural Warped Tour due to a dog-biting incident.

The program also boasts a dedicated photo gallery and an insightful interview with veteran Vans Warped Tour photographer Lisa Johnson, who has been capturing the essence of the tour since its inception.

This incredible guide will be available for free at the Washington, D.C., Long Beach, and Orlando tour stops, as well as at the Z2 Booth (#1529) during the San Diego Comic Con International.
