About Outside Lands Music Festival

Outside Lands Music Festival is a three-day music, art, food, wine, beer, and cannabis festival held annually in Golden Gate Park, San Francisco. Founded in 2008 by Superfly, Another Planet Entertainment, and Starr Hill Presents, it grew out of a conversation between promoters Allen Scott and Rick Farman in 2004 and took more than three years of community coordination and permitting to bring to life. Named for San Francisco's western neighborhoods, known as "The Outside Lands Music Festival" in the 1800s, the festival has become the largest independently owned music festival in the United States.

Spanning 80 acres of Golden Gate Park, Outside Lands Music Festival draws up to 225,000 attendees across three days and features stages named after iconic San Francisco locations, including the Panhandle, Lands End, Twin Peaks, the Sutro, and the Presidio. The lineup covers rock, pop, indie, hip hop, electronic, jam, soul, and funk, routinely mixing legacy headliners with breakout acts. Past headliners include Radiohead, Paul McCartney, Metallica, Elton John, Kendrick Lamar, Green Day, SZA, Foo Fighters, The Weeknd, Florence + The Machine, Lizzo, and Post Malone.

Food is central to the Outside Lands Music Festival experience. Every vendor is local, from Michelin-starred restaurants to one-off pop-ups and food trucks. Wine Lands, Beer Lands, Choco Lands, and GastroMagic (a stage pairing high-profile chefs with musicians and comedians) have all become signature attractions. The San Francisco Chronicle noted that the food and drink at the festival "could rival any gastronomically-focused event in the country." In 2019, Outside Lands Music Festival became the first major U.S. music festival to sell cannabis on its grounds through the Grass Lands area, adding another layer to a festival that the San Francisco Weekly described as being "about the city, rather than just in it."

Beyond the music, the festival is built around San Francisco's culinary identity, featuring exclusively local food vendors, dedicated wine and beer areas, chef-musician collaborations, and a curated cannabis experience called Grass Lands. The 80-acre grounds also include art installations by local artists, sustainability-focused programming through Eco Lands, and stages named after San Francisco landmarks.

What makes the Outside Lands Music Festival fan experience unique?

Outside Lands Music Festival stands apart from other major festivals because of how deeply it reflects San Francisco's culture. The food program features 100% local vendors, and the festival has hosted areas like Wine Lands, Beer Lands, Choco Lands, and Cocktail Magic alongside the music. GastroMagic, introduced in 2014, became known for pairing chefs with musicians and comedians on a dedicated stage. Grass Lands, the curated cannabis area launched in 2018, made Outside Lands Music Festival the first major U.S. music festival to allow legal cannabis sales. The festival also supports the community through Outside Lands Music Festival Works, which provides grants to regional music and arts education programs. On the sustainability side, more than 90% of festival waste was diverted from landfills in 2022 through composting, recycling, and partnerships with Clean Vibes.
