In addition to performances, Head in the Clouds will welcome back 626 Night Market for the fourth year as food curator for the festival. This year’s full list of offerings will be announced in the coming months.
The LA lineup follows Head in the Clouds’ first New York edition from May 20-21. 88rising in partnership with Goldenvoice and The Bowery Presents hosted the inaugural Head in the Clouds New York Music & Arts Festival at Forest Hills Stadium in Queens with sets from DUMBFOUNDEAD, MILLI, Beabadoobee, Rich Brian, ITZY, XG, NIKI and more. The music-filled weekend doubled as a celebration of Asian Pacific American Heritage Month and the 100th anniversary of Forest Hills Stadium.
This year marked the first time the Head in the Clouds festival expanded to a new market in North America following its run in Los Angeles (2018-19; 2021-22) and 2022 festivals in Jakarta, Indonesia, and Manila, Philippines.
