This Memorial Day Weekend in 2025, Punk Rock Bowling & Music Festival will celebrate 25 years of unapologetic chaos, community, and pure DIY spirit. What began as a punk rock family reunion has become an annual pilgrimage, built not by corporations but by the grit and passion of the punk rockers who make it all possible. After a quarter-century of breaking the rules, we’re excited to reveal the lineup that embodies everything this festival stands for. Social Distortion is making their PRB debut, bringing that raw, legendary sound filled with Mike Ness’s stories of love, loss, and resilience. Then there’s Peter Hook & The Light, performing the best of Joy Division. From the haunting strains of “Love Will Tear Us Apart” to “Ceremony”, their iconic catalog will pull you into a world of shadows and light. The celebration keeps rolling with Cock Sparrer, the legendary East End London street-punk that’s been tearing it up since 1972. With a core group of members who’ve stuck together from day one, these longtime allies are taking their final festival bow in a bittersweet farewell. Other bands performing includes Frank Turner, Power Trip, Flag, FIDLAR, The Damned, The Interrupters, Amigo the Devil, Laura Jane Grace and The Mississippi Medicals and many more listed below.
Hitching their wagon to both Ska influences and Pop-Punk/Alt Rock proclivities, Rat Boy opts for colorful and lively compositions all across new full-length Suburbia Calling (Epitaph Records).Continue reading
