The Saturday performances for the 2022 When We Were Young music festival in Las Vegas were canceled just one hour before the doors were scheduled to open for the day’s events.
A devastating development for fans is that it does not appear that they will be offered a chance to transfer their tickets to an upcoming date and instead, they just being offered refunds.
Artists like My Chemical Romance, Paramore, Avril Lavigne, Taking Back Sunday, Jimmy Eat World, Dashboard Confessional, The All-American Rejects, and more were all scheduled to perform and they will all perform at the two upcoming festival dates on October 23 and October 29.

Festival organizers announced at about 10:00am local time, “When We Were Young Festival organizers have spent the last several days proactively preparing the festival grounds for a windy Saturday. The National Weather Service has now upgraded their Saturday forecast to a High Wind Warning, including dangerous 30-40 mph sustained winds with potential 60 mph gusts. Under advisement of the National Weather Service and the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, we have no other choice than to cancel today’s When We Were Young Festival. The safety of our fans, artists and staff will always be our top priority.”
“This was not a decision that came lightly. We know many of you traveled to the area to have a spectacular day with your favorite bands and have been looking forward to this day for months. We were equally as excited and are devastated to have to share this news,” the statement added.
Sunday’s performances are expected to happen as “weather looks sunny without any wind advisories.”
