Free Press Summerfest
Eleanor Tinsley Park – Houston, TX
June 3 – 4
Weather forced a last-minute venue change for the big Houston festival in 2016, placing the huge dance party in the massive parking lot of the Texans’ NRG Stadium. The unabashedly young demographic that the festival attracts was hilariously — albeit brutally — lampooned by Glide Magazine whose writer observed, “nothing makes me feel more elderly and out of place than walking amongst the hoards of hormonal high school kids — Kylie Jenner wannabes and fluorescent EDM bros.”
Lineup: Lorde, Flume, G-Easy, Cage The Elephant, Solange, The Shins, Tove Lo, Carnage, Post Malone, Lil Uzi Vert, Jon Bellion, Jauz, Grouplove, Milky Chance, DVBBS, Portugal. The Man, St. Paul & The Broken Bones, Rufus Du Sol, Big K.R.I.T., Charli XCX, The Strumbellas, Cashmere Cat, Jai Wolf and more
Distance from Denver: 1,021 miles
