One week after the final show in Portland, a single UK date of November 10, 2012, was announced on the Warped Tour website, with the venue being The Alexandrea Palace in London.[3] The full line-up was also listed, and tickets were available to purchase on the same day. 2012 was the first time that the Vans Warped Tour had travelled to the UK since 1999, thirteen years prior.[4]

The tour featured thirteen unique stages, the majority of which were named after sponsors of the year’s tour. Larger bands would play all of their dates on main stages such as the Kia and Monster Energy stages for the whole tour, whereas bands with less of a following played on the smaller stages on select dates of the tour.[5]

Warped Tour 2012 featured over 100 performing bands and artists, the most notable of which included All Time Low, Pierce The Veil, Rise Against and Mayday Parade.[6] In an article for Alternative Press, Rachel Campbell ranked 2012 ninth in her list of top ten Warped Tour line-ups.[7]
