The countdown is on for a first-of-its-kind music festival coming to Charlotte this spring with dozens of pop, rap and rock artists.
After months of anticipation, the full lineup was released Friday for the inaugural Lovin’ Life Music Fest, featuring The Avett Brothers, The Fray and 26 other performers.
Since announcing that Post Malone, Stevie Nicks and Noah Kahan will be headlining the event, organizers have been slowly revealing other artists set to perform, from Maggie Rogers and Dominic Fike to DaBaby and The Chainsmokers.
Now, the full lineup is out along with several local performers hitting the QC Local Stage too.
Lovin’ Life Music Fest, set for May 3-5, will be held in and around First Ward Park with performances across three different stages, along with food, art and “experiential” vendor booths for fans to enjoy.
Charlotte is no stranger to music festivals, with several big and small events held around the area every year. But this three-day event— designed to be a “Charlotte-flavored Lollapalooza” — is expected to be the biggest and boldest music event in the Queen City.
“The city’s amazing reception to its first true multi-genre major music festival is exactly what we had hoped,” said Bob Durkin in a news release.
He’s co-founder of Southern Entertainment, the team behind other major music festivals in the Carolinas and across the country.
“After producing events all over the East Coast, we’ve dreamt of bringing a major music festival to Charlotte, and the Lovin’ Life Music Fest is our passion project,” Durkin previously said. “We’re thrilled to support the ongoing effort to make our hometown of Charlotte a Music City in such a big way.”
Durkin said tickets sales at all levels are “strong,” with some sold out. Tickets are still available.
