The JunkYard’s concert season kicks off with Armin Van Buuren on Friday, May 15, and that show will be followed by a slew of other headliners you’ll want to put on your summer calendar, including Lil Wayne.

The five-time Grammy winner is continuing his 2025 tour that celebrates the twentieth anniversary of his seminal Tha Carter album series, which began in 2004 as his fourth studio release. Tha Carter, which was released by Cash Money Records, was followed by Tha Carter II in 2005 from Lil Wayne’s newly founded Young Money Entertainment, and then Tha Carter III in 2008.

But that’s not the only draw at the JunkYard this summer. Check out all the concerts announced so far below, and get your tickets at thejunkyard.com.
