Announced earlier this afternoon, Sad Summer 2020 is going to be the place to be during it’s July 17th through August 15th run.

With headliners All Time Low, The Story So Far and The Maine joined by Movements, Grayscale, Yours Truly and Danger Boys, the Sad Summer 2020 lineup is stacked with bands for fans of all emo sub-genres and ages.

Sad Summer formed last year as the brain child of The Maine, who wanted to create a one stop spot for all of their fans who had other favorite bands hitting the touring circuit that summer.

“We could each go on and do our different summer tours- OR we could all join up and then fans only have to buy one ticket, and have an awesome time,” Pat Kirch told DO617 after the festivals announce last year.

“I think festivals help create a sense of community and fun. There’s a different kind of energy when you do that. I love the idea of everyone coming together in that environment. It’ll be fun.”

Tickets for this year’s festival go on sale today at 3pm EST with code “SAD”
