Outside Lands: The Golden Ticket

A brief backstory on the festival that's guaranteed to be the hottest show of the summer.

SF's own Another Planet Entertainment has joined forces with the cofounders of Tennessee's legendary Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival (and the SF Recreation & Park Department) to mount the inaugural Outside Lands Music and Arts Festival August 22 to 24 in Golden Gate Park. With six main performance stages, the three-day live-music extravaganza will be the first annual ticketed, large-scale, multistage event to take place in the park, and is set to showcase a genre-spanning roster of talent (swinging from stoner-friendly headliner Tom Petty to art-rock titans Radiohead to world-music innovator Manu Chao and local favorite Rupa and the April Fishes) alongside a showcase of visual artists. Watch your back, Coachella.
