Blink-182 is marking both the 182nd day of the year – and the 25th anniversary of its breakthrough album Take Off Your Pants and Jacket – with a three-day immersive fan experience at Complex LA in Los Angeles.
Running July 1-3, the limited-time event will transform the Fairfax Avenue venue into a tribute to the band’s legacy, featuring interactive displays, rare music collectibles and exclusive merchandise inspired by the group’s history and signature aesthetic.
The pop-up celebrates one of the defining releases of the pop-punk era. Originally issued in June 2001, Take Off Your Pants and Jacket debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, sold more than 14 million copies worldwide and cemented Blink-182’s status among the genre’s most influential acts. The album includes fan favorites such as “The Rock Show,” “First Date” and “Stay Together for the Kids.”
The event continues Complex’s growing series of artist-focused immersive experiences, which have previously spotlighted performers including The Weeknd, Don Toliver, Billie Eilish and The Kid LAROI. Similar events have featured exclusive merchandise, limited-edition collectibles and interactive installations designed to celebrate major album releases and career milestones, making the Blink-182 activation one of the latest additions to the retailer’s music-driven programming.
Attendance requires advance RSVP, although entry is not guaranteed due to limited capacity. Organizers are encouraging fans to arrive early because demand is expected to be high, with exclusive merchandise and collectibles available only during the three-day celebration.
