What does Governors Ball have in common with your ex? They’re both moving to a new spot in Queens this year. The big-ticket New York music festival revealed its 2023 lineup today (January 17), with word of a new location, relocating to Flushing Meadows Corona Park in Queens, the site of two World’s Fairs and the annual US Open Tennis Championship, after hosting the last two editions at nearby CitiField, the home of the New York Mets. This year’s fest goes down June 9 to 11, and it’s headlined by Kendrick Lamar, Lizzo and Odesza.
Also appearing over the spring weekend are our personal queen Kim Petras, along with Haim, Lil Uzi Vert, Lil Baby, Omar Apollo, Lil Nas X, Sofi Tukker, Girl In Red, Oliver Tree, Snail Mail, Syd, kennyhoopla, Rina Sawayama, and a bunch of others. Peep the flyer below for everyone.
“We’re big steppers here in Queens, and we couldn’t be more excited to welcome Kendrick Lamar, Lizzo, Odesza and a litany of other iconic artists to Flushing Meadows Corona Park for Governors Ball 2023 this June,” says Queens Borough President Donovan Richards Jr. “Beyond hosting some of the world’s most popular musicians and enjoying the economic activity that Governors Ball will generate across Queens, we’re also deeply grateful for the festival’s partnership with local organizations like the Queens Night Market, Chhaya and ECRC to elevate our local food vendors and our community groups doing critical empowerment work every day.”
Tickets go on sale via a “fan early access” starting Thursday (January 19) at 10 a.m. EST, with a signup list over at GovBall.com. A general on-sale will follow.
