Boys Like Girls, Flyleaf, Steve Aoki, More To Play Bamboozle 2023

It’s been over a decade since the last Bamboozle festival took place. And now, it has returned.

New Jersey’s most beloved festival is ready to bounce back for the first time in 11 years. News broke on Thursday that the legendary multi-genre festival dropped nearly the full roster for its 2023 lineup.

For the past few weeks The Bamboozle has been dropping several acts and bands who’re attending this year’s festival. But today, nearly all of the acts have been announced. Joining previously announced acts Limp Bizkit, Saves The Day (performing In Reverie in full), Valencia, Boys Like Girls, and The Spill Canvas, are WHOKILLEDXIX, Palisades (final show), Chelsea Grin, Flyleaf, Ski Mask The Slump God, and many more. Check out the somewhat full lineup below.

Tickets are currently on sale now. Weekend passes and VIP passes are also available. Tier 2 standard three-day general admission tickets go on sale Friday, January 27, at noon EST. The Bamboozle 2023 takes place Friday, May 5 to Sunday, May 7, at Bader Field in Atlantic City, N.J.

The Bamboozle took place from 2003 to 2012, replacing Skate And Surf which began in 2001. After the festival’s first demise, Live Nation brought back Skate And Surf. It ran from 2013 to 2015. Artists who’ve played The Bamboozle in the past include The Roots, Sonic Youth, Midtown, Jonas Brothers, MC Hammer, Panic! At The Disco, Metro Station, Kesha, Arsonists Get All The Girls, and Bon Jovi.
