Now, if you aren’t yet sold, let’s go into more detail about this festival. Golden Gate Park is a 1000-acre urban park located in San Francisco. This park, come festival day, will come alive with 7 different stages holding around 90 artists. While running from stage to stage, feel free to try as many different food options from all over the Bay Area as you please. For all of my friends with allergies or preferences, there will be plenty of options for foods that are gluten-free, vegan, and vegetarian-friendly. This ensures everyone has enough food to keep dancing through the weekend! Maybe you can even check out the Wine/Beer lands and have a sweet taste of the Bay Area. This is starting to sound like a perfect weekend, right?!

Plus, what isn’t to love about Golden Gate Park in August! The weather is a crisp 70 degrees, the birds are chirping, the trees are dancing, and the soft glow from the sun shines through it all. Best news yet, your favorite artists are right in front of you! This year is majorly headlined by artists such as Charli XCX, bringing BRAT summer back, The Strokes, bringing indie-rock to the big stage, and Empire of the Sun, who will be sure to make even the most inflexible of people dance. But that’s not all.
