Blink-182 and Paramore Will Be Next to Each Other at New ‘Adjacent Music Festival’
Paramore #Paramore
A new music festival is coming to the beach in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Dubbed the Adjacent Music Festival, the two-day concert over Memorial Day Weekend features headliners Paramore and Blink-182, who announced their reunion with singer Tom DeLonge earlier this month.
The lineup also emphasizes talent born in the tri-state area of New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and New York. Japanese Breakfast, the Starting Line, and Mannequin P**** represent Philadelphia, Jack Antonoff’s Bleachers and Folly are among those from the Garden State, and Jeff Rosenstock, the Movie Life, and Wheatus — whose “Teenage Dirtbag” has found a second life in a TikTok trend — rep Long Island, New York.
The red-hot hardcore band Turnstile are also on the bill, along with Jimmy Eat World, Idles, Motion City Soundtrack, the Linda Lindas, I Am the Avalanche, Phantom Planet, and Coheed and Cambria, among others. More than 40 bands are set to perform over three stages.
As its name implies, Adjacent Music Festival — slated for Saturday, May 27, and Sunday, May 28 — will be next to the Atlantic Ocean and the Atlantic City Boardwalk. Two-day GA passes and VIP packages go on sale Friday, Oct. 28.
Paramore is currently on its own headlining tour of theaters, while Blink-182 recently released their new song “Edging.”
