• There will be two “very large stages” at 3rd and 10th streets, and those will face each other.

• “They know, but they were very tight-lipped,” Councilwoman Amelia Ross-Hammond said during a briefing with city council on Tuesday. “And they said that once they let us know, the balance of the tickets will literally fly out the door.”

if daft punk actually does play this fucking thing im gonna be so annoyed at having to scrape enough money together to make it happen

Just a heads up. VB doesn't get a lot of events so hotels & airbnbs are ridiculously overpriced, like $600+ per night, if they're not already gone.

Lol if daft punk were to actually play I’d just try to convince some rva people to drive too and from each day, no way I’d pay those hotel prices

Lmao not a lineup announcement, just an announcement of a hidden item giveaway. But first person to find the item gets to see the lineup before everyone else, but they didn’t say when

would be an ideal time for someone to drop a good fake

Grace Jones is a dope booking.

A lot of great stuff there, but feels significantly less big than past lineups.

Is Pharrell's Phriends essentailly a TBA headlining set?

[chisholm]

I’ll probably keep an eye on resale, no way I pay $399+ fees for that

its basically a superjam. In 2019 Jay-Z, Snoop, Tyler and others appeared for it, despite not being on the lineup

Aside from Cudi and MGK its a good lineup. Just was expecting something major after that wait.

[gocatsnu]

I will never understand why this festival spends probably close to 1M on hour long sets from acts like Mumford or DMB for approx 100 fans in attendance

[gocatsnu]

however I cant make fun of this fest's decisions too much considering there were people on this board who thought that Daft Punk might play this festival yesterday

No one was being serious about that

A solid lineup for two days but for three days this feels pretty thin... And are "Pharrell's Phriends" headlining every night? Or are there headliners slumming it with the small names?

I just assumed Pharrel is a big fan Idk seems kinda weird but we all got our guilty pleasures.

I worked at a DMB show once, expected it to suck. They were actually pretty valid.

Usually it’s 3 headliners but this year it’s hard to find them.
If I were to guess

Friday: Kid Cudi
Saturday : Pharrell & Friends
Sunday: Grace/Niles headline 2nd stage vs Skrillex

That's where I'm at with it. Grace and Clipse are solid bookings but i couldn't justify spending for such short sets.

The IG comments on this line-up are really worth your time.

Maren Morris might pull out of Something In The Water Festival because she’s so disappointed at the moment and she’s a country star and Miley Cyrus will replace her.
