The first weekend of the "When We Were Young" Music Festival in Las Vegas was surely a trip down memory lane as famous 2000s bands gathered together and performed the ultimate throwback playlist.
Avril Lavigne, who recently released her new album, "Love Sux," was among the highly awaited performers of the music festival.
The first day of the festival was supposed to be last Oct. 22. However, due to inclement weather conditions reported in the area, the opening day was moved to the day after, Oct. 23.
Technically, Oct. 23 would be the festival's first day, putting Oct. 29 the second day.
Avril Lavigne's nostalgic performance last weekend was one of the highlights of the pop-punk festival.
The "Sk8r Boi" hitmaker surprised everyone when she was joined by All Time Low singer and guitarist Alex Gaskarth and lead guitarist Jack Barakat to perform a head-banging cover of "All The Small Things" by Blink-182. (via Billboard)

"We had the best time on Sunday with @avrillavigne. Due to unforeseen circumstances, she is unable to join us on Oct. 29 of When We Were Young. We will miss you, Avril!" the post reads.
Organizers have not expounded on the actual reason why Lavigne would not be performing. Heading to her Instagram page, the rocker's recent post was a hilarious haircut video of her getting cut by YUNGBLUD.
