Black Pumas, Alanis Morissette and Carly Rae Jepsen – Chicago Tribune

Pitchfork Music Festival’s 2024 summer program; Black Pumas includes Jai Paul and 100 Gecs Friday, Jamie XX, Carly Rae Jepsen and Jessie Ware Saturday and Alanis Morissette, Brittany Howard and Muna on Sunday.

The festival will play Union Park in Chicago July 19-21. Tickets go on sale at 10:00. With the announcement made on Wednesday: 1-Day General Admission tickets start at $109, 3-Day Tickets start at $219.

Pitchfork PLUS tickets are $199 (one-day) and $399 (three-day).

New this year, VIP Access tickets start at $379 (one-day) and $699 (three-day).

VIP Access will be a change for the proudly democratic Pitchfork Music Festival. VIP Access tickets include proscenium viewing areas on both the Green and Red main stages, as well as the previous sidestage stands, as well as the Lollapalooza-sounding backstage lounge with air-conditioned restrooms, drinks and meals, massages and other extras. .

The alternative rock, indie, electronic music and hip hop festival dates back to the Intonation Festival held in Union Park in 2005, and the first full Pitchfork Music Festival was held in 2006. It is held annually at the Near West Side park, except when canceled due to the pandemic. It will be held in 2020 and also includes the CHIRP Record Faire and a number of local vendors. Daily capacity is 20,000 pieces.

Pitchfork, the Condé Nast-owned magazine of the same name, was hit with layoffs earlier this year following the decision to merge its music publication with GQ.

In related news, Lollapalooza is also expected to announce the band lineup, which will perform in Grant Park on March 19, from August 1-4.
