Ultimate guide to Innings Festival 2023 in Tempe: Lineups, tickets and where to park

Green Day and Eddie Vedder top the bill when Innings Festival 2023 returns to Tempe Beach Park and Tempe Arts Park for two days of baseball-themed fun in the sun Feb. 25-26.

This is the fifth year for Innings Festival, which features 18 artists on two big stages, including Weezer, Marcus Mumford, the Black Crowes, the Revivalists and many others.

This is Green Day's first appearance in metro Phoenix since 2017, when the Revolution Radio Tour played what was then called Talking Stick Resort Arena (now it's Footprint Center). This is Vedder's second time topping the Innings Fest lineup. He was last here in 2019, when we declared him that year's undisputed Innings MVP.

Additional highlights include an All-Star Baseball Jam hosted by Jake Peavy, a performance by the Bronson Arroyo Band and the return of Off the Mound with Ryan Dempster, an on-site talk show featuring MLB players and musicians.
