PRE-COVERAGE | GOVERNORS BALL

Next month, we're looking forward to making our way back to Queens to take in great performances, activations, food/beverages and the experiences that we enjoy when we're at one of our favorite music festivals that kick off the season here in NY for this year's Gov Ball taking place Jun 7-9th! Last year we had the pleasure to chat with Co-Founder, Tom Russell (MAY ISSUE #89 in 2023) about this music festival which includes an array of genres. They kicked off their newest home at Flushing Meadows in Queen which is an immersive park setting.

This year, with headlines that include: Post Malone and Rauw Alejandro on Fri, The Killers and 21 Savage on Sat, and ending with Sza and Peso Pluma on Sun, there is something for everyone with 60+ artists across the weekend and 3 stages and a number of acts from Sabrina Carpenter, Sexyy Red, Doechii, Reneé Rapp, and more!

With all of the music that you'll get to enjoy, you want to ensure that you have a number of options for you and your friends who will be attending. From an array of wine and spirit brands, Luke's Lobster, Sweet Chick, Magnolia Bakery, Stella X Hot Ones - there is something that reflects diverse culinary interests that will keep you going!

Make sure to visit the website to see what tickets are still available and to see how you can elevate your experience if you're interested in VIP options. For those that want to keep the party going, there are After Dark shows taking place throughout the city with artists you'll want to hear. Each of these performances have separate tickets and will allow you to truly get an immersive experience.

In the JUN ISSUE #102, we'll share more interviews and experiences from Gov Ball.
