When We Were Young in Vegas

What to Expect During When We Were Young

When We Were Young is the emo, pop-punk, and rock nostalgia festival that has taken Las Vegas by storm. Held at the Las Vegas Festival Grounds on the north end of the Strip, it features massive lineups of beloved bands from the 2000s and 2010s alongside current acts. The festival crowd — largely millennials reliving their favorite music era — pours into Strip nightclubs and bars after the music ends each night, creating one of the most fun and energetic after-party weekends of the year. The October timing means perfect weather and full nightlife programming.
