Glowfest, the largest college touring festival in the US, returns to the home of it’s inception on September 14th, 2012 with a touted lineup of carefully curated talent. Big Gigantic will headline with support from The White Panda, Logic, who is the most sizzling rising star in all of hip hop right now, FIXYN, and The Pro Letarians. Glowfest was birthed at IU, where the first show went live with LMFAO and Mike Posner. One year later, they brought Pretty Lights and Chiddy Bang to campus before the rest became history.
It’s exciting to come back to Indiana where it all began. The first show was great and we received so much support. At that time we never would have thought it would go this far and tour to other Universities. We are all extremely grateful for IU’s support and look forward to coming back every year bringing awesome talent to our home campus. – Glowfest Co-founder Deuce Thevenow

The Lineup
Big Gigantic
Composed of live drummer Jeremy Salken and master saxophonist Dominic Lalli, who also controls the audio production. No one has had a more monumental year than Big G. From opening for the largest names in electronic dance music to headlining the largest festivals in America as well as their own Uprising Tour, the Boulder natives made massive ripples across the scene with their most recent album Nocturnal. Sexy sax and stimulating bass – to put it simply, they are worth the price of admission alone.
The White Panda
The unspoken kings of mashups. With their most recent release “Bambooyah!” (35 track mashup album) stirring up the conversation, the duo let it be known that they were the cornerstone of the sub genre. Gracing stages at Lollapalooza, Electric Zoo, and Shamboozle this summer, The White Panda will also be headlining their own tour.
Logic
If you aren’t familiar with Logic yet, brace yourself. The Visionary Music Group poster child is the perfect example of hip hops revival within a rising star. Growth and recognition through a grassroots approach, Logic has made his mark by dropping tracks with lyrical menace.
Poetry in motion if you will, reminiscent of stars like Eminem, Nas, Talib Kweli, and Mos Def. Logic is not only relative to a college crowd, his energy live is unmatched and you can just tell he is both passionate and humble about where he has placed himself.
