My favorite festival for guitar smashing returns to Las Vegas this September, boasting a lineup that has me seriously considering a plane ticket.
The lineup for the 2017 edition of the Ryan Seacrest-hosted iHeartRadio Radio Music Festival was unveiled Tuesday. Clearly, the iHeartMedia team isn't fucking around when it comes to enlisting some of the biggest names in music for the increasingly popular two-day throwdown.
Headliners for the main event at T-Mobile Arena Sept. 22-23 include the Weekend, DJ Khaled, Lorde, Big Sean, Harry Styles, Miley Cyrus, Coldplay, Thirty Seconds to Mars, and special guest Kesha.
"Because our lineup is based on feedback from iHeartRadio users, it's one of the most diverse you'll ever see," Tom Poleman, iHeartMedia’s Chief Programming Officer, said in a news release Tuesday. "As our listeners interact with our app, favoriting songs and saving stations, we learn what their ideal festival would be, then we bring that to life!"
Also returning this year is Capital One's Daytime Village, a one-day lineup Sept. 23 at the Las Vegas Village across from the Luxor Hotel and Casino. The 2017 Daytime Village performers include Migos, Halsey, French Montana, Bebe Rexha, Bleachers, All Time Low, Khalid, and more.
Tickets go on sale July 28 at 10 a.m. PT. For those who can't make it to Vegas, the festival will be streamed live via the CW Network app and broadcast on traditional television Oct. 4-5. The performances will also be broadcast across iHeartMedia radio stations all across the U.S.
