Outside Lands Music and Arts Festival //
Golden Gate Park – San Francisco
August 8th-10th, 2025 //
Hey, who doesn’t believe in second chances?
Bay Area fans of Tyler, the Creator certainly felt cheated in 2024 when the Grammy-winning rapper had to cancel his headlining performance at Outside Lands due to “personal reasons” less than two months before it was scheduled to take place, but they can forget all about that with the lineup for the three-day event’s 17th year featuring his return this August after being revealed almost a month earlier than usual.
Along with the aforementioned headliner, the other acts receiving top billing at OSL 2025 will be Hozier and Doja Cat as the festival mixes hip-hop with folk, soul, blues, rock and pop after replacing Tyler, the Creator with Sabrina Carpenter a year ago.
Another stacked undercard, meanwhile, boasts appearances by Anderson .Paak & The Free Nationals, Vampire Weekend (performing two sets — one during the day and another in the evening — as you can see from the sun and moon icons next to their name at the bottom of this year’s poster), Glass Animals, Gracie Abrams, Jamie xx, Doechii and Gesaffelstein. They aren’t the only names standing out and worth mentioning here, though.
Those headed to Golden Gate Park will also have the chance to see Bleachers, Ludacris, Jorja Smith, Black Coffee, Still Woozy, Sammy Virji, Thundercat, Wallows, MARINA, ARMNHMR, Royel Otis, Role Model, FINNEAS, BigXthaPlug, Artemas, flipturn, Claude VonStroke, Walker & Royce, Floating Points, Julien Baker & TORRES, Fujii Kaze, Bakar, 2hollis, BLOND:ISH, Dombresky, Levity, BUNT., DJ Koze, Mark Ambor, Mannequin Pussy, Jessica Pratt and more over the course of three days. Plus, the SOMA Tent is back for all you dance heads who are looking to get down there. Check out the rest of the artists coming to SF’s signature music festival in the poster.
