After over a year without festivals or concerts, music lovers may have something to look forward to this fall. The iconic Outside Lands festival, which typically takes place in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park every August, has moved to Halloween weekend in the hopes that a later date will allow for greater safety and a more widely vaccinated audience.
“The shift in dates allows us to work collectively to determine any new safety measures necessary to implement during the festival weekend,” said festival co-producer Allen Scott. “We ask fans to use this time before the festival to continue exercising common sense COVID safety practices, and we look forward to being together again soon.” Current ticket holders who are unable to attend the new dates can request refunds until Apr. 15.
