Years into the heyday of the emo nostalgia festival, it seems kind of wild that Canada hasn't hosted one of these yet, right? Well, it's officially happening: on August 23 and 24, the inaugural All Your Friends Fest will bring all of your Warped Tour-adjacent faves to Burl's Creek Event Grounds in Oro-Medonte, ON.
Fall Out Boy and Billy Talent are set to headline the weekend that will make you feel like you're living inside your overheated iPod Nano again, with additional performances from a lineup of over 20 acts, including Jimmy Eat World, Dashboard Confessional, All-American Rejects, Silverstein, Fefe Dobson, Lights, Mayday Parade, the Maine, Gob, the Plain White T's, We the Kings, Gym Class Heroes, grandson, the Honest Heart Collective, lølø, Charlotte Sands, and Stereos.
"Building upon our legacy of creating unforgettable moments, All Your Friends Fest promises to captivate music fans by merging the nostalgic essence of the past with the electrifying energy of the present," Eva Dunford, co-founder of Canadian live entertainment company Republic Live, said in a statement. "This inaugural event aims to shake things up in the festival landscape in Canada and we are committed to pushing the boundaries and changing the game when it comes to how we bring fans and live music together. This festival is a celebration of the spirit and energy of a genre of music that has powerfully influenced generations."
