Emo vs Pop-Punk Tickets

Emo vs Pop-Punk (EvPP) is a DJ-led, nostalgia-soaked event series that brings together fans of emo and pop-punk through iconic music videos and classic tracks. Founded by Brian Buckley in Chicago in 2015, EvPP creates a venue for fans to relive the MySpace-era vibe with a modern twist. The concept expanded to Kansas City in 2019 with DJ Joey Donut, and has since become a go-to experience for those who love big-chorus anthems from bands like My Chemical Romance, Panic! at the Disco, Fall Out Boy, Paramore, Blink-182, and more. EvPP events blend curated sets with a high-energy, community-driven atmosphere that makes you feel like you’ve got a friend in the business helping you secure your seats.

Upcoming EvPP dates span across the country, bringing the same pulse to new cities. Look for: May 24, 2025 in San Francisco at Brick & Mortar Music Hall; August 2, 2025 in San Diego at The Holding Company; November 22, 2025 in Seattle at Chop Suey, with additional late-2025 listings announced by the promoter. For each show, expect a curated experience that honors the nostalgia of emo and pop-punk staples, with reliable ticketing and hassle-free checkout. Follow official channels for the latest tours and drops, and connect with fellow fans who share a love for the era-defining tracks that shaped a generation.
