Founders Entertainment, the company behind Governors Ball, has announced a new New York City music festival to take place October 1st and 2nd in Flushing Meadows Corona Park in Queens.
The festival reportedly came about because organizers wanted to bring West back to the city after his performance at Governors Ball was canceled due to inclement weather, according to Rolling Stone.
Pablo is the headliner along with Chance The Rapper and The Weeknd.
Other Meadows acts include Kygo, Kamasi Washington, Mac Miller, Chromeo, Charles Bradley and his Extraordinaires, Twin Shadow performing Prince’s Purple Rain, Damian “Jr. Gong” Marley, Bryson Tiller and Pusha T. However, Governors Ball attendees who missed out on seeing West will receive a promo code granting them access to a special pre-sale starting Wednesday at 11 a.m. EST.
Check out the full lineup below and ticket information is available here.
Tickets for the Queens festival go on sale to the general public on Thursday at 11 a.m.
Although the two-day festival will not bring numerous acts that were featured in the cancelled Governor’s Ball.
