It's 41 degrees today in New York City, which isn't really the ideal weather for a spring cleaning. Thank god for us, the Festival Outlook is all virtual. Today we spent a good deal of our post-drunken haze updating the lineup pages for a slew of the world's festivals, from Osheaga and Bumbershoot to Van's Warped Tour (yes, it still exists) and the Winnipeg Folk Festival. Check out all our work below: And while we have your attention, please be sure to bookmark Festival Outlook and follow us on Twitter . That way, you'll get [...]
Although the first signs of vernal equinox may be late bloomers this week, there was no shortage of blossoming on the festival front. With the first major festival of the season under our belts, let's look ahead to what lies ahead in our futures. Many lineup announcements have been flying in from both sides of the Atlantic, with Reading and Leeds, Northside Festival, Summer Camp, Sweetlife, and Heavy T.O. Camp Bisco joins the ranks of festivals celebrating big anniversaries this year, with their 10th edition attracting big names, while the Hangout Festival continues to add A-list acts to [...]
With so many festivals and concerts around the country set for Memorial Day Weekend, it's a buyer's market. We've now got Amberland, Bisco Inferno, DelFest, StrangeCreek, Phish at Bethel Woods, Sasquatch! and plenty of other events sharing the weekend with Summer Camp . The Chillicothe, IL-based festival aimed to set itself apart from some of the other options with a batch of lineup additions that included keyboardist Bruce Hornsby and the Noisemakers, Leeds funk/soulsters The New Mastersounds, Grateful Dead drummer Bill Kreutzmann's 7 Walkers outfit and a "one-of-a-kind" set from a Huey Lewis and Umphrey's McGee collaboration called rUMors.

Austin's annual musical challenge to the brave and eager has rolled around. While film, interactive and games are becoming more important to the South By South West (SXSW) brand, music is at the heart of this Texas festival and once the interactive spring break is over, the skinny jeans and Ray Bans come a knocking, looking to further themselves in some capacity. With over 2,000 bands playing over five days, there's plenty to delve into. Here's a dispatch from the first 48 hours: Screaming Females @ Club De Ville If you like lo-fi [...]

After the music is over on the main stages of the Summer Camp Festival , the action shifts to the Red Barn for the festival's late night shows.

On Saturday, May 28, Lotus and Big Gigantic [...]

Summer Camp Music Festival @ Three Sisters Park, May 27-30 Words : Ryan Maher Images : Tammy Wetzel Most bands can’t put up with each other on the road for 10 years. Any married couple, no matter how madly in love, will attest to the trials and tribulations a decade delivers. And through tornadoes, threats of divorce from Three Sisters Park herself six years in and the passing of its neighbors (RIP 10kLF, get well soon Rothbury), Summer Camp has emerged as the Midwest’s undisputed greatest [...]

While the festival season has grown in recent years, most see Memorial Day as the official opening weekend. Traditionally, many of the festivals on this weekend were smaller, local options but this year we add another large festival to the mix giving fans more options for music over the long weekend. Just don’t forget the weather can still be a little cool & unpredictable so make sure you don’t forget that extra sweatshirt & rain gear! [Photo by Jeremy Gordon ] FurthurFest [...]
