The MoPop Festival — taking place in Detroit, Michigan — released their lineup on Wednesday along with their brand new location: Detroit’s Historic Fort Wayne Park.

The festival is two days long and scheduled to occur on July 25th and 26th. The festival prides itself on having different acts every single year, and in the seven years it’s been going there has never been a single returning act, and this is done in order to keep a fresh face on the festival and its audiences. The festival, since its 2013 debut, has gone from 7,500 attendees to 20,000 in the matter of only a few years.

As for this years lineup it is as follows: Khalid, The 1975, Kaytranada, Purity Ring, Doja Cat, Phoebe Bridgers, Orville Peck, Still Woozy, Hippo Campus, Peach Pit, Girl In Red, Beabadoobee, Bane’s World, Beach Bunny, Dayglow, Kota the Friend, Oso Oso, Dogleg, Charity, Who Boy and whiterosemoxie.

In addition to the musical acts there will be a number of local vendors providing food and other activities. Some of these alternative activities that are currently slated are: the Mo Arcade, Craft Bazaar, Food Truck Rally Alley, and much more! The local vendors and food trucks list will be announced within the next few months. 

Public sale began today on their website: mopopfestival.com and tickets begin at $129.95 for GA weekend and $289.95 for Yacht Club VIP Weekend passes.
