Music festival season is starting to heat up: beloved dance music event series We Belong Here has announced the return of its NYC festivals for this fall.
Known for curating unforgettable experiences around the world, the event brand is bringing two festivals to NYC this year—including a brand new one at a stunning waterfront venue in Greenpoint, Brooklyn.
Following the wild success of last year’s inaugural festival at Wollman Rink in Central Park, We Belong Here is doubling down—bringing back the Central Park edition while also adding a Brooklyn debut.
“New York City holds a special place in our story,” said Justin Dauman, Co-Founder of We Belong Here.
“The response to our first year at Central Park exceeded all expectations, with the majority of tickets selling out in the first 24 hours. Expanding to two festivals allows us to welcome more people to enjoy the experience, highlight more unique locations, and maintain the same level of intimacy.”
The event series kicks off with the debut Brooklyn festival on October 3 – 5, while the second annual Central Park edition will be the weekend following that, October 10 – 12.
Last year’s festival brought thousands to Central Park to enjoy three days of curated dance music headlined by artists like Fisher, Kaskade, and Monolink.
News on this year’s music lineup and ticket sales is scheduled to roll out in the coming weeks, but fans can sign up for up-to-date info via their website here.
