KROQ has announced the lineup for its 34th annual KROQ Almost Acoustic Christmas, set to take place on Saturday, Dec. 13, 2025, at the Kia Forum in Inglewood.
The holiday concert, presented by Pepsi, will feature performances by Evanescence, Papa Roach, Social Distortion, Rise Against, The All-American Rejects, Third Eye Blind, Yellowcard, Wet Leg and The Paradox.
“For more than three decades, KROQ’s Almost Acoustic Christmas has been the ultimate holiday party for SoCal, and this year is no exception,” said Kevin Weatherly, Senior Vice President of Programming at KROQ on a recent press release. “A special thanks to all the bands participating in this year’s show in support of two incredible local organizations.”
Tickets for this year’s show go on sale at noon Thursday, Nov. 7 at kroq.com/xmas.
The long-running event will once again support two Los Angeles-based nonprofits focused on youth education: Para Los Niños and the Al Wooten Jr. Youth Center. Founded in 1980 in Los Angeles’ Skid Row, Para Los Niños provides children and families with pathways to success through educational programs and community initiatives. The Al Wooten Jr. Youth Center, located in South Los Angeles, offers free after-school and low-cost summer programs aimed at empowering young people through academics and leadership development.
Since its debut in 1989, Almost Acoustic Christmas has become a staple as one of the region’s most anticipated holiday events, known for bringing together major alternative rock and indie acts to celebrate the season while supporting local causes. Past lineups have included artists such as The Smashing Pumpkins, Foo Fighters, Green Day, and Red Hot Chili Peppers.
The 2025 event is presented in partnership with Kia of Southern California, the Los Angeles Department of Mental Health, Verizon, Hulu, San Bernardino International Airport, Amazon, and others.
