When We Were Young is an upcoming music festival scheduled to be held in Las Vegas at the Las Vegas Festival Grounds on October 22, 23, and 29, 2022.[1][2][3]
History[]
The event was first announced on January 18, 2022, as a one-day event on October 22, 2022. Tickets sold out quickly, leading to the addition of second and third dates on October 23 and 29, 2022.[4][5]
Domain Scam[]
After the artists were announced, experimental band I Set My Friends On Fire posted to their social media accounts claiming to hold the festival's domain name hostage and demanded to be added to the roster. The band owned "www.whenwewereyoungfest.com", which was directed to the band's facebook page. [6]
