Taking place on November 5 and 6, 2021, Astroworld Festival 2021 will look to once again bring back the beloved spirit and nostalgia of AstroWorld, the legendary and now-defunct amusement park that was located across the street from the current festival grounds after first opening in 1968. As Scott grew up in nearby Missouri City just outside of Houston and attended the park numerous times as a child, Astroworld Festival will once again help relive the magic that was while helping to ultimately make his lifelong dream come true. After becoming the largest single-day artist-curated music festival in the country, as well as the largest music festival in Scott’s hometown of Houston, the event that celebrates hip-hop, pop music, and Houston culture has now been expanded to two days.
Its new creative theme, “Open Your Eyes To A Whole New Universe,” the critically-acclaimed rapper turned mainstream culture phenom looks to once again curate and produce a larger-than-life multi-stage music festival experience in his hometown of Houston. Every detail of Astroworld Festival is an extension of Scott’s personal creativity and unique vision, truly making Astroworld a festival like no other.
Scott is also now confirmed as the festival’s headlining performer as he prepares for the forthcoming release of his highly-anticipated new album, Utopia. The full music lineup, which is solely curated and hand-selected by the 29-year-old, will be revealed at a later date closer to the festival. Past festival performances have featured some of today’s most sought-after music acts beyond just hip-hop and R&B including Post Malone, Rosalia, Pharrell Williams, Da Baby, Lil Wayne, Young Thug, Playboi Carti, Megan Thee Stallion, among many others.
