With no plans to slow down in 2025\, the band is set to dominate festival stages and solo dates spanning the US including Philadelphia\, Miami\, Charleston and more. Additionally\, Vampire Weekend have kept their promise of returning to the city of Asheville after postponing their initial date due to the devastating Hurricane Helene.\nVampire Weekend continues to treat fans to the inner workings of the band as they release the latest episode of their sensational podcast Vampire Campfire. On the seventh installment of VC Koenig\, Baio\, and Tomson discuss the year ahead: OGWAU Tour Part 2\, festivals old and new\, a Frog on the Bass Drum revival\, and much more. 2025 will be full of surprises\, that’s a promise.
