Governors Ball Moves to Flushing Meadows Park in 2023

This New York music festival announced Lizzo, Odesza, and Kendrick Lamar as their 2023 headliners, also dropping their full lineup and a surprise addition — like — Ice Spice. 

The Friday features performers Lil Uzi Vert, HAIM, Diplo, Omar Apollo, and Kim Petras, while Saturday welcomes artists Lil Baby, aespa, Rina Sawayama, Lauv, Oliver Tree, Finneas, Kenny Beats, Koffee, and Snail Mail.

What makes this Gov Ball especially unique is its new venue — Flushing Meadows Corona Park in Queens. (Years prior, Governors Ball moved from Randall’s Island Park to Citi Field, citing easier transportation as the primary reason for the switch.) This new location is still accessible by subway and offers attendees a shadier, grass-filled space.

“Words can’t express how excited we are to bring Gov Ball to Flushing Meadows Corona Park, one of the most special and storied parks in all of New York City,” Tom Russell, co-founder and partner at Founders Entertainment, said in a statement. 

“Since moving to Queens in 2021, we’ve been overwhelmed by the welcome the community has shown us, and we look forward to continue being a part of and giving back to that community for years to come,” he added.
