After a successful inaugural year last year, The Meadows returns to Citi Field in Queens, New York September 15-17 for an entire weekend of awesome music.
This year, the lineup does not disappoint as headliners include JAY-Z, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Gorillaz. In addition a lineup of pure talent will be performing throughout all three days including Migos, Two Door Cinema Club, Erykah Badu, LL Cool J, Big Boi, A-Trak, Nas, Bassnectar, Foster The People, and more.

With a lot to look forward to, take a look at some of the artists we are excited to see:
JAY-Z
The Meadows may be a relatively new festival, but one thing is for sure -- they don't play around when it comes to headliners. This year hip hop icon JAY-Z takes the stage. The rapper dropped his 4:44 album this year, and it will be amazing to see him perform them live ... along with those classic tracks we still can't get enough of. PLUS ... would, say, Beyoncé make a guest appearance?!
Migos
If you're ready to get "Bad and Boujee" raise your hand. 🙋🏼
Migos has had an incredible year. Aside from all the Quavo features on basically every song out there, the trio has been one of the most buzzed about rap groups. This year alone, the guys have teamed up with artists like Katy Perry, Calvin Harris, Lil Yachty, Steve Aoki, and more. Not to mention they dropped their Culture album.
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Red Hot Chili Peppers have been a band for the past 34 years. They are one of the best-selling bands of all time and the most successful band in alternative rock radio history. Legends. Only. We are ready to belt out "Scar Tissue" and "Californication" at the top of our lungs.
A-Trak
In terms of DJs, A-Trak is definitely one of the most talented. He's actually won DJ championships. So, obviously he knows his way around a turntable. We've got our dancing shoes packed, and they are ready for the Fool's Gold label founder.
Nas
Nas AND JAY-Z in one weekend?! Nas is one of the great lyricists of hip hop, but hasn't released an album since 2012. Could some new music be debuted during his set? We hope so!
Gorillaz
Gorillaz released a monster of an album, featuring a ton of collaborations with a genre-spanning list of artists. And at the Meadows is when we'll get to see them transform from their cartoon selves on their cover art into the Humanz who can play an awesome live set.
Future
Because Future has all the bops.
