Outside Lands returns to Golden Gate Park Aug. 7–9, with headlining sets from Brat hitmaker Charli XCX, dance music giants Rüfüs Du Sol and indie rock greats the Strokes.
The extensive lineup of 80-plus acts also features rising rapper (and Kendrick Lamar collaborator) Baby Keem; singer-songwriter Djo, the alter ego of Stranger Things actor Joseph David Keery; R&B and jazz singer Destin Conrad; hip-hop icons Clipse; English rockers Wet Leg; and R&B vocalist Mariah the Scientist.
Other lineup highlights include Lucy Dacus of Boygenius fame; Memphis rap princess Glorilla; rising rock band Geese; British R&B star Kwn; indie rockers the XX; and Aughts electro-pop hitmakers Empire of the Sun.
The sprawling festival draws tens of thousands of fans per day to Golden Gate Park, with four main live music stages — plus the open-air SOMA nightclub for electronic acts; Dolores’, for drag and queer programming; and intimate performances among the eucalyptus trees at the Duboce Triangle stage. The festival also features dedicated wine and cannabis sections, a vast array of food vendors and other experiences, including a wedding chapel.
Fans looking to secure tickets early have a couple options. The loyalty presale, for those who’ve bought festival tickets in the past five years, begins March 3, and fans must register before 11 a.m. to get access. A second presale begins March 4 at noon, and fans must sign up for it by March 3 at 4 p.m. Chase cardholders also get presale access March 3 at noon.
