The 2018 Panorama NYC music festival happens July 27-29 on Randall’s Island, and the lineup has just been announced! Presented by Goldenvoice, they have an incredible lineup this year with the best rappers in 2017 and 2018. This is a new festival since it was started in the summer of 2016, but it is making a name for itself by including amazing headlines and this might be their best year yet.
The headlines for the Friday, July 27th show are The Weekend, Migos, Father John Misty, The War On Drugs and Dua Lipa, including Jhene Aiko on the smaller stage. The headliners for the Saturday show on July 28th are Janet Jackson, SZA, Cardi B, Gucci Mane and St. Vincent. The other great performers like PVRIS and Japanese Breakfast. On The Sunday show, the headliners are The Killers, The XX (I am actually currently listening to their song right now!), Odesza, David Byrne, Fleet Foxes and other performers include Rex Orange County.
I would predict that the Saturday show will be the best since Janet Jackson has been an icon for a number of years. Also, the fact that Cardi B is going to be performing will draw a lot of people to the Saturday show. Gucci Mane has also been gaining extreme popularity this year, especially with his song, “I Get the Bag” ft. Migos. I also like that there are some alternative/indie bands performing. Having artists like St. Vincent, PVRIS, and Japanese Breakfast will give the show more variety in between all the huge rap acts.
Tickets go on sale Friday (2/2) at 10 AM, so make sure you are ready to buy them! There will also be two-day passes this year, in addition to the usual three-day and single-day passes. One day passes will be $125 dollars, two-day passes would be $200 dollars and the three-day passes are $275 dollars. So I hope you have saved up enough money because this show will definitely be one to remember.
What day will you be going?
