The Festival Wire is your go-to source for the latest news, lineup announcements, schedule drops, and official updates directly from music festivals across the globe. We aggregate information to keep you informed in one convenient place.
Our system automatically monitors official news outlets, festival sources, and online discussions (like Reddit) for updates. This data is then processed using AI to aggregate and summarize the information. While we strive for accuracy, always double-check the official festival website or source for the most current and definitive details.
We include fact-checking steps in our AI aggregation process and manually clean up entries that we notice are incorrect. However, due to the high volume of information and the nature of automated processing, occasional inaccuracies may slip through. If you spot something wrong, post in the Music Festivals forum or contact us directly so we can verify and update the entry.
The Festival Wire is updated multiple times per day as new information becomes available. We aim to bring you news as close to real-time as possible.
Stay plugged in! We share links to Festival Wire updates all day, every day on our social media channels. Follow us on:
You can use the dropdown menus at the top of the page to filter the news feed by specific festivals or locations. Select your desired options and click "Apply Filters" to see relevant updates.
Use the Music Festivals forum or contact the editorial team directly if you spot something that needs attention. We monitor community reports and update the Festival Wire accordingly.
The festivals included depend on the sources our automated system monitors (official sites, news outlets, online discussions). We're continuously working to expand coverage. If a festival isn't listed, it might be because we haven't integrated a reliable source for it yet, or they simply haven't had recent relevant news or announcements detected by our system.
