2023’s hippest festival isn’t in New York or Los Angeles.
It’s not even in Chicago.
No, the festival with the most indie cred this year goes to Salt Lake City’s Kilby Block Party.
Taking place May 12-14 at the Utah State Fairgrounds, some of the hippest bands from the ’90s, ’00s, ’10s and today are dropping into SLC for three days of music, art, food and more.
But for now, let’s talk music.
Just a few of the mega headliners on the bill include The Strokes, Pavement, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Pixies and Run The Jewels.
That’s not all though.
Dominic Fike, Japanese Breakfast, Deerhoof, Goth Babe and Lucius are also set to perform at the three-day extravaganza.
Plus, recently reunited rockers The Walkmen and rising star Ethel Cain will grace the fairground stages as well.
Still not sold?
Well, what if we told you affordable last-minute tickets are still available?
Yes, at the time of publication, we found three-day passes going for as low as $200 before fees on Vivid Seats.
While that may sound a tad bit pricey, make sure to take into consideration that single-day passes all start at $147 before fees.
Thus, if you attend just two days of the music fest, you make out like a bandit.
Don’t forget how many incredible bucket list acts you’ll get to see too.
Take our word for it — the Kilby Block Party is truly a can’t miss event. Festivals just don’t curate lineups this good.
