Relive Your Emo Glory Days in Vegas – and Get a New Tattoo to Prove It!

Heading to Las Vegas this October for the When We Were Young Festival? You’re not just showing up for Blink-182, Panic! at the Disco, Weezer, Avril Lavigne, The Offspring, All Time Low, Taking Back Sunday, Yellowcard, and Simple Plan—you’re reliving the soundtrack of your teenage rebellion. But before you rage-scream “All the Small Things” and “Don’t Speak,” let me introduce you to your next-level festival memory: getting a badass tattoo at our shop right here in Vegas.

What You’ll See at WWWY 2025 (October 18–19, Las Vegas Festival Grounds)

You’re in for one intense, nostalgia-packed weekend. This year’s lineup is a greatest-hits gallery of emo and pop-punk anthems:

• Headliners: Blink-182 will be ripping through chart-defining hits while Panic! at the Disco performs A Fever You Can’t Sweat Out front to back—exactly the full-album, emotional rollercoaster experience you need.

• Other major acts: Weezer, Avril Lavigne, The Offspring, All Time Low, Alongside punk titans like Bad Religion, Yellowcard, Simple Plan, Taking Back Sunday, The Used, Knocked Loose, The Gaslight Anthem, Jack’s Mannequin, and more join the riot. 

• Two-day festival: This year, it spans October 18 and 19—double the emo-punk fun. 

Why Your Body Deserves a Tattoo — Right Now

1. Your Tattoo should echo your favorite anthems
   Hear the opening riffs of All the Small Things or those dramatic lyrics of I Write Sins Not Tragedies and think—this deserves to stay etched on you. Vegas is the perfect place to immortalize those lyrics, album art, or even a quote that hits you deep.

2. It’s Vegas—make it spontaneous, make it real
   The city thrives on bold choices and unforgettable nights. Curry-themed slots? Meh. But you? You’ll leave with permanent ink and a story worthy of a campfire. Festival day high? Seal it in ink.

3. Beat the merch line and the regret
   The merch stalls will be jam-packed and overpriced. But a tattoo? It’s unique, personal, and way cooler. Every time you look at it back home, you’ll feel that rush—like you're back in the crowd again.

4. We’re locals who get your scene
   We’re right off the Strip, armed with tons of custom sketches that speak emo, hardcore, alt-rock. Whether it’s the Panic! gasp-worthy typography or the Offspring’s skate-punk edge, we’ve done it—and nailed it.
