Deeply rooted in San Francisco's creative spirit, Outside Lands transforms its legendary park into a playground for music, culture, and connection. Golden Gate Park is not only one of the most beautiful public spaces in the world, but has been a home to some of the Bay Area's most historic cultural events, with Billboard recently hailing it as "Best Music Festival Venue" in the country. Beyond the stage, the festival enhances the fan experience with world-class food and drink, immersive art installations, and an inclusive, community-driven atmosphere-celebrating the distinct character of the Bay Area while reflecting the vibrant cultural fabric that defines it.
Outside Lands is pleased to announce the return of Grass Lands for its 8th year. The festival was a pioneer with the space when it premiered in 2018, which shines a spotlight on the innovation happening in the cannabis space. Also returning is the Taste of the Bay Area featuring countless cuisines. Attendees can also sip their way through Wine Lands, Beer Lands, and Cocktail Magic, and discover curated programming on SOMA, Dolores', and Duboce Triangle specialty stages.
Allen Scott, co-founder of Outside Lands and President of Concerts and Festivals for Another Planet Entertainment, shares, "Every year, we strive to deliver a lineup that excites and surprises-letting fans see their favorites while discovering new music. The experience at Outside Lands is just as much about unexpected moments and fresh discoveries as it is about our incredible headliners. For our 18th anniversary, we can't wait to celebrate the power and impact of music across genres in our one-of-a-kind setting of Golden Gate Park."
