[1][2] The first Never Say Never festival began on March 18, 2009, with 30 bands on two stages,[1] including Forever the Sickest Kids, Anarbor, NeverShoutNever!, A Skylit Drive, Drop Dead, Gorgeous, LMFAO and The Scene Aesthetic.
The 2010 festival was held on March 17, 2010,[1] featuring 40 bands of different genres on three stages, as well as a vendor village.
The final Never Say Never Festival took place on March 16, 2016, at Las Palmas Racepark.
The festival was marred by technical issues, high-risk investments and low attendance, which resulted in many of the artists having their sets cut short and not being paid in full for their performances.
