Mosswood Meltdown, one of the premiere underground rock festivals in the country, returns to Oakland’s Mosswood Park July 19th & 20th, 2025.
Thus far for 2025, we'll be hosting the pioneers of De-Evolutionary theory, legendary art punk band, DEVO, from Akron Ohio, as well as the coolest Riot Grrrl's, Bratmobile, San Francisco legends, Osees, The Queen of Oakland, Kreayshawn , Portland’s only Rock n Roll band, The Exploding Hearts, and bloody Belgium’s, The Kids! Mosswood will also be starring Oakland sweethearts Shannon & The Clams, surf punkers La Luz, anthemic indie-rock sisters Bleached, Nashville egg punks Snõõper, Miami bass hip-hop group L’Trimm, and glam rockers Giuda.
And as in years’ past, it wouldn’t be Mosswood Meltdown without its incomparable host, John Waters.
Stay tuned to more news from Mosswood Meltdown - many more artists will be announced in the coming months.

"Some call it ‘The Warped Woodstock' or 'An Asshole-free Altamont' while others holler 'Coachella, Go-To Hella.’ We're Mosswood Meltdown and we're going to lose our musical marbles again this year with a line up of lunatic acts that will make even the angriest punk- rocker pogo their way to paradise " - John Waters
