Vans Warped Tour founder Kevin Lyman promised that the lineup for the 25th anniversary event at Shoreline Amphitheatre at Mountain View was “going to crush.”

And he has absolutely made good on that promise.

Andrew W.K., Bad Religion, the Offspring, Thrice and — oh, yeah! — Jawbreaker are among the top attractions set on the bill during the special two-day event, July 20-21, at Shoreline.

Other notable acts include Gym Class Heroes, Simple Plan, Save Ferris, the Vandals, the Story So Far, NOFX, the Used and Sum 41.

In all, 50-plus acts are expected to perform as Warped marks a quarter century of rocking fans of punk, alt-rock and high-voltage genres.

Tickets are on sale now at www.livenation.com.

Of course, some might be a bit confused by all this, given that the 2018 Warped was billed as the tour’s final cross-country jaunt. That farewell lap even included a stop at Shoreline back in June.

But Lyman has been clear all along that he planned to do a few 25th anniversary special events in 2019, instead of mounting a full tour. The Shoreline stop is one of three such anniversary events. The other two are happening in Cleveland and Atlantic City.

Here is the lineup:
