Richard Branson just announced he's reviving V Fest and bringing it to the US for 2019. It'll be on the west coast and they're anticipating 25k/per day. No other details were provided...
Looking back at the old Virgin Fest lineups that they used to have at Pimlico outside Baltimore, this could end up being a decent fest.

No acts have been confirmed for next year’s inaugural event, but the lineup will combine “today’s hitmakers, emerging, discoverable acts and artists that remind people of our [British] heritage,” Felts says. “We’re not going to have a carbon-copy lineup with any other festival out there,” he claims. “The top couple of lines will be recognizable acts, but they may not be super-Top 40. It would’ve been Daft Punk before Daft Punk was Daft Punk.”

Please surprise me and make the claim a reality.
Counterpoint- it will probably suck
“The convergence of music, technology and innovation will be a key differentiator for us,” Felts says. “Most apps are just checking lineups and maybe there’s a selfie cam. There’s no real innovation. Imagine a world in which you go into your app and have your food or drink brought to you, have seat-to-seat chatting and click on your friend and have your friend meet you over at a certain stage. Imagine if you bought the general-admission pass and you got there and you think you made a mistake and want the VIP pass. Imagine a world in which you could go into your app and automatically upgrade.”

I don't even really know where this could be. Non-camping means it must be somewhat close to a big city you'd think. New York seems saturated after the failing of Panorama and with The Meadows and Woodstock coming back next year.
My guess is either DC or Boston in September. Far enough way from Firefly or BC. It's just a really crammed part of the country to try and launch a new festival.

Well, it sounds like Woodstock is confirmed to take place at MPP. Branson said it would be on the east coast though. I can’t see it taking place in Boston (BC), New York (Gov Ball), or Philly (Made in America) because of the respective festivals already taking place in those cities. D.C. seems like the most logical choice.
