October 19th, 2025 might have been just another rainy fall night for most, but for Pierce The Veil fans, it was the night they’d been waiting for. Two years after their last Cincinnati stop at the Andrew J Brady Music Center (a 4,500-capacity venue), the post-hardcore heavyweights made their long-awaited return and this time commanding the massive Riverbend Music Center, with over 20,000 fans ready to scream every lyric back at them.
Openers Like Roses, Ecca Vandal, and HEALTH set the tone early, building a wall of sound that primed the audience for what was to come. When the lights finally dimmed and the haunting intro of “Death of an Executioner” echoed across the amphitheater, the energy exploded.
From there, Pierce The Veil wasted no time giving their fans the energy they’ve been waiting for. Frontman Vic Fuentes was magnetic as ever, his voice balancing grit and grace, his sincerity cutting through every lyric.
After closing the main set, the band returned to deafening applause for a three-song encore that felt like a love letter to longtime fans, performing “Disasterology,” “Hold On Till May,” and, of course, “King for a Day,” sending the crowd into one final frenzy.
Through every scream, tear, and guitar riff, Pierce The Veil shows have always felt like a shared emotional experience.
Tickets for remaining dates are available now, and fans can follow the band on social media for behind-the-scenes content and more tour highlights.
