Vans Warped Tour 2026 Long Beach Stop Getting Full Amazon Music Livestream

If you can't make it to Long Beach for Warped Tour this month, Amazon Music just gave you a lifeline. The streaming platform announced it will exclusively livestream the Long Beach stop of Vans Warped Tour 2026 on Saturday, July 25 and Sunday, July 26, broadcasting globally from the Shoreline Waterfront. Two full days of punk, emo, hardcore, ska, and everything in between, right on your screen.

You'll be able to watch on the Amazon Music app, the Amazon Music channels on Twitch and Prime Video, and the Amazon Live channel on Fire TV and Samsung TV Plus. Basically, if you have any Amazon device or app in your house, you're covered.

The Long Beach Lineup Is Absolutely Stacked

I'll be real, this Long Beach lineup might be the best of all the 2026 stops. Jimmy Eat World is headlining while celebrating the 25th anniversary of Bleed American, which alone is reason enough to tune in. The band kicked off their tour trek on June 9 in Denver and will be making their return to the Warped Tour stage after a 25-year hiatus. Let that sink in.

Papa Roach is heading into Warped with serious momentum. Their recent single Braindead featuring Toby Morse of H2O hit No. 1 on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Airplay chart, and they've got a 12th studio album on the way. They also had their track See U In Hell featured in the Netflix Devil May Cry season 2 trailer. They're not slowing down.

The rest of the bill reads like every mid-2000s playlist you ever made came to life: Rise Against, All Time Low, Dance Gavin Dance, Killswitch Engage, Simple Plan, The Used, Taking Back Sunday, Thrice, Underoath, Sleeping With Sirens, The Devil Wears Prada, The Story So Far, Bowling for Soup, Glassjaw, Hawthorne Heights, Hoobastank, Hot Mulligan, Reel Big Fish, Silverstein, Plain White T's, The Ghost Inside, Gym Class Heroes, Joyce Manor, Escape the Fate, Set It Off, Stand Atlantic, Magnolia Park, Norma Jean, and a ton more. Over 100 artists across two days. It's honestly absurd.

Who's Hosting the Livestream

Amazon Music is setting up an exclusive backstage set for the broadcast, hosted by three people who genuinely belong in this world. Lilith Czar (Juliet Simms) is a Warped Tour alumna who's been part of this scene for years. She recently appeared on Black Veil Brides' latest album Vindicate on the duet Cut. Joining her is Andy Biersack from Black Veil Brides and SiriusXM host Caity Babs. They'll be doing artist interviews and previewing performances throughout the weekend. It's a solid crew for this.

All Five 2026 Tour Stops

Long Beach is the only confirmed livestream date so far, but the 2026 tour is hitting five cities total. Two of them are brand new additions this year:

Washington, D.C. — June 13-14 at the Festival Grounds at RFK Campus

Long Beach, CA — July 25-26 at the Downtown Long Beach Shoreline Waterfront

Montreal — August 21-22 at Parc Jean-Drapeau (new city)

Mexico City — September 12-13 at Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez (new city)

Orlando, FL — November 14-15 at the Camping World Stadium Campus

Each stop has its own distinct lineup, so the Long Beach bill is different from what you'd see in D.C. or Orlando. The broader 2026 roster across all cities also includes names like Dropkick Murphys, Ice Nine Kills, Flogging Molly, GWAR, Alexisonfire, Motion City Soundtrack, Suicidal Tendencies, Enter Shikari, Atmosphere, and plenty more.

More Than Just Music

Warped Tour has always been about more than the bands. The festival is produced in partnership with Insomniac and stays true to its roots with skateboarding and BMX demonstrations throughout the weekend. The Charity Circle is back, featuring organizations like To Write Love On Her Arms, Keep A Breast, the Living the Dream Foundation, and Punk Rock Saves Lives. And if you're there in person, bands are selling merch directly from their own tents in Artist Alley, which is something that's always made Warped feel different from every other festival.

The Legacy Keeps Building

For anyone who needs a refresher, Warped Tour was founded by Kevin Lyman in 1995 and ran as the longest-running touring music festival in North America until its final cross-country run in 2019. Over those three decades, the festival launched careers for bands like Blink-182, No Doubt, Green Day, and countless others. The 30th anniversary in 2025 was massive, selling a combined 240,000 tickets across D.C., Long Beach, and Orlando. Avril Lavigne played her very first Warped Tour set in D.C. that year. Machine Gun Kelly returned to the stage. Now the festival is expanding internationally with Montreal and Mexico City, and honestly, it feels like this thing has more energy than ever.
