The upcoming 10th edition of the Governors Ball Music Festival marks a major milestone for an event that originated as a shared pipe-dream between New Yorkers in their early 20s who wanted to see their city play host to a music festival on par with the world’s best live music events. Beginning modestly as a one-day inaugural affair in 2011, Governors Ball has grown into a weekend-long annual tradition enjoyed by music fans from around North America and the world at large. Deemed “A Festival With A New York Heart” by The New York Times, Governors Ball’s continued success in the most competitive entertainment market in the country is a testament to the incredible job the small but mighty team at Founders Entertainment have done in bringing a world-class music festival to their own back-yard.
Over the years the festival has hosted hundreds of thousands of fans, and seen an eclectic array of artists take the stage. It has become a right of passage for music lovers on the east coast, with many having grown up attending the festival each year as an official kickoff to summer. It speaks to Governors Ball’s longevity and impact as well, that some of today’s biggest artists like Halsey and King Princess first attended the fest as ticket buyers years before taking the stage at the festival to perform themselves.
