The Firefly Music Festival returns to Dover Park, Delaware for three days June 21 – 23, 2013 with over different 70 musical acts. Tickets for the festival go on sale Thursday, February 21 and start at $198 for general admission and $798 for VIP packages.
The lineup for Firefly spans multiple genres and really taps into what the 18 – 30 year old crowd is listening to today. It easily beats The Hangout Music Festival which was announced last week and in my opinion is a much better value than Coachella.
It’s a clear indication that the East Coast music scene is vibrant and booming as Firefly will look to draw people in from the North East and Mid-Atlantic. With a lineup like this they shouldn’t have a problem.
Headliners for Firefly Music Festival 2013
The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, Vampire Weekend, Foster the People, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The Avett Brothers, Calvin Harris, MGMT, Big Gigantic, Zedd, Matt & Kim, The Lumineers, Kendrick Lamar, Dispatch, Ellie Goulding
Easily one of the best lineups that we’ve seen so far. Single day tickets for the festival will be available closer to the date, but I would predict this event to sell out.
Even with the amount of competition in the area, this lineup screams out to the inner indie fan while delivering with EDM artists like Calvin Harris and Zedd. There’s even new indie electronic acts like Purity Ring and CHVRCHES, both of which I’m dying to see live.
This is the first lineup since Ultra, that’s filled with wow factor. Tickets on Sale Thursday at 12 PM EST via Fireflyfestival.com.
Rumor has it that Camp Bisco is releasing their lineup this week too, I wonder if they can top Firefly?
