Now in its eighth installment, Outside Lands has absolutely solidified its reputation as one of the most well-known and revered festivals in the world. The media across the country has been universally praising the event since its inception in 2008, covering the festival\u2019s evolution from setting the standard in the region to its current position as a renowned national powerhouse that all artists consider one of the most important performances in any given year.<\/p>\n

As with all the great Outside Lands lineups of the past seven years, the 2015 edition is brilliantly diverse by design. From legends like Elton John and D\u2019Angelo, to current massive hit makers such as Mumford & Sons, The Black Keys, Sam Smith and Kendrick Lamar, to indie darlings Wilco, Tame Impala and St. Vincent, to newcomers on the rise like Lake Street Dive, Mac DeMarco, George Ezra, Glass Animals, James Bay, Sky Ferreria, Leon Bridges, Shakey Graves, Benjamin Booker and Natalie Prass, to electronic luminaries Axwell & Ingrosso, Porter Robinson, Hot Chip, Caribou, ODESZA, RL Grime, DJ Mustard, Green Velvet & Claude VonStroke: Get Real, Django Django and Dan Deacon, to hip hop rising stars G-Eazy and SZA, Outside Lands has developed into a hub of infinite music exploration. As Mother Jones<\/em> magazine once exclaimed, \u201cOutside\u00a0Lands is as much about showcasing up-and-coming bands \u2014 and their colorful fans, of course \u2014 as it is about the stars.\u201d<\/p>\n

As the world’s only gourmet rock festival, Outside Lands has been a pioneer in the food-music\u00a0movement since its 2008 inception. Each year, to the delight of ticket-holders, producers enhance the festival’s stellar culinary offerings. There are now a\u00a0total of six unique experiences to be discovered, all of which fully celebrate Northern California’s rich food and drink culture. These experiences include\u00a0A Taste of the Bay Area, Wine Lands, Beer Lands, Choco Lands, Cheese Lands <\/em>and the 2014 hit addition, GastroMagic<\/em>, which is a fully programmed\u00a0stage devoted to fantastical culinary entertainment. The Outside Lands 2015 food and drink lineup will be announced in the coming months.<\/p>\n

Outside Lands has become a cherished event that the city of San Francisco has embraced as fans from around the world flock to spend an incomparable weekend in one of America\u2019s greatest parks. Each year, festival organizers ensure that the event highlights the Bay Area and all of the components (from food to wine to beer to art to comedy, theater and music) that make it one of the most desirable places to live and visit. They also like to the say thank you to the city and the local communities surrounding the park by giving back in substantial ways. In its first seven years, Outside Lands has raised over 10 million for the benefit of the San Francisco Recreation and Park Department. Based on a 2011 economic study, it is estimated that the festival generates over $70 million annually to the San Francisco economy.<\/p>\n

Its consistently outstanding live music combined with the exceptional majesty of the Golden Gate Park surroundings and the finest food and drink experience found at any festival has elevated Outside Lands\u2019 stature and cemented its reputation as a highly acclaimed global destination for entertainment lovers everywhere.<\/p>\n
