The upcoming 10th edition of the Governors Ball Music
Festival marks a major milestone for an event that originated as a shared
pipe-dream between New Yorkers in their early 20s who wanted to see their city
play host to a music festival on par with the world’s best live music events.
Beginning modestly as a one-day inaugural affair in 2011, Governors Ball has
grown into a weekend-long annual tradition enjoyed by music fans from around
North America and the world at large. Deemed “A Festival With A New York Heart”
by The New York Times, Governors
Ball’s continued success in the most competitive entertainment market in the
country is a testament to the incredible job the small but mighty team at Founders
Entertainment have done in bringing a world-class music festival to their own
back-yard.
Over the years the festival has hosted hundreds of thousands
of fans, and seen an eclectic array of artists take the stage. It has become a
right of passage for music lovers on the east coast, with many having grown up
attending the festival each year as an official kickoff to summer. It speaks to
Governors Ball’s longevity and impact as well, that some of today’s biggest
artists like Halsey and King Princess first attended the fest as ticket buyers
years before taking the stage at the festival to perform themselves.
Governors Ball At 10
Years – A Retrospective
Described as “a true melting pot of cultures, styles and
sounds” by Variety, the crowds,
sights, delicious eats found each year at Governors Ball are emblematic of the
great city the festival calls home. The 2020 edition will again feature a
signature lineup of the best food NYC has to offer, as well as craft cocktails,
beer, lawn games, surprise pop-up performances from subway and street
performers, eye-catching art installations, and more.
Throughout Governors Ball’s history, Founders Entertainment
has strived to provide a thoroughly positive experience for attendees. As part
of that commitment, for the 2020 event Governors Ball recently announced upgrades to VIP
programming, festival site and experience improvements, and a new age policy
requiring persons under 18 years of age to attend with an adult aged 21 or
older. visit GovBall.com/newagepolicy and GovBall.com/vipexperience for details on the new age policy
and VIP programming respectively.
Founders Entertainment is honored to
once again bring those special touches and attention to detail to Governors
Ball patrons at
the festival grounds on Randall’s Island Park (supported, maintained and
programmed by the Randall’s Island Park Alliance www.randallsisland.org).
In addition to being accessible by MTA bus, bike, cab, Williamsburg shuttle, and
ferry service from Mid-Town Manhattan to and from the festival grounds, the
festival is accessible to pedestrians via the RFK Bridge, the 103rd street
footbridge, and the Bronx Randall’s Island Connector.
