It’s the announcement New York music fans have been waiting for: The Governors Ball music festival lineup.
J. Cole, Halsey and Kid Cudi are slated to headline the concert series, which is scheduled for June 10-12, 2022.
Migos, Jack Harlow, Louis the Child, Flume, Glass Animals and other artists are amongst the slew of musicians who will hit the stage this summer for the stacked lineup.
Hosted in New York City’s Citi Field, the Governor’s Ball is returning to its regularly scheduled summer program after delaying the 2021 event, which served as its 10th anniversary, to September last year.
But avid music lovers weren’t so keen about the lineup on Twitter when it was announced Tuesday morning.
“This is terrible,” one person responded.
“This festivals last good lineup was in like 2014,” tweeted another disgruntled user.
Despite some negativity, other fans of artists who are scheduled to appear were thrilled to see their favorites.
“HALSEY IM NOT OKAY AHHHH,” wrote an enthusiastic user, while others tweeted a chorus of applaud emojis.
