Your Guide To 2021 Music Festivals

Published

on

As Covid cases decline, and more and more of the population is getting vaccinated, life is finally beginning to return to normal. One thing that many people have been itching to get back to is live music. As we get closer to summer, music festivals have begun their roll out. Rolling Loud, the biggest hip hop festival in America, was the first to announce their incredibly stacked line up and revealed the festival would be as soon as July. Soon after their announcement, other festivals followed suit. As of now, there hasn’t been any statements regarding if concert goers will need to have to show proof of vaccination, but I’m sure there will be some sort of regulations. So far 14 music festivals have been announced and scheduled for 2021, with more to come I’m sure. Hope your wallets are ready! Live music is back with a vengeance.
