Fall Out Boy and Billy Talent have been announced as the headliners for Ontario's inaugural All Your Friends Fest.
Set to happen over the weekend of August 23 and 24 at Burl's Creek Event Grounds in Oro-Medonte, ON, the two-day festival seems to have modelled itself after When We Were Young, the Las Vegas-based festival in October that offers a who's who of third wave emo.
In addition to the headliners, other bands set to take the stage include Jimmy Eat World, All-American Rejects, Dashboard Confessional, Silverstein, Plain White T's, Mayday Parade, grandson, gob, The Maine, Lights, We The Kings, Gym Class Heroes, and many more. See the full lineup below.
In a statement, Eva Dunford, co-founder of Republic Live said, "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. 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."
Both VIP and general admission passes for the weekend, as well as single day tickets will be available. RV (30 AMP and non-hydro), tent camping and parking passes will also be available for purchase.
