In June, the mystery of what exactly Wonderfront Music & Arts Festival's inaugural lineup would be was revealed with a massive phase one announcement. With local luminaries Tony Hawk, Trevor Hoffman and Rob Machado onboard as brand ambassadors, the roster unveiling didn't disappoint as huge music acts, one after another, were rattled off during a big downtown press conference.
Spread across more than seven stages along the city's waterfront, Wonderfront (which takes place Nov. 22-24) will feature San Diego stars Slightly Stoopid as well as indie/electronic pop acts MGMT, Phantogram, Japanese Breakfast, Walk the Moon and X Ambassadors; R&B/hip-hop icons Miguel, Vince Staples, Tyga and Busta Rhymes; Latinx artists Los Tucanes de Tijuana, Los Angeles Azules, Ximena Sariñana and Victoria La Mala; EDM juggernauts Big Gigantic, 3LAU, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike; punk rockers Pennywise, X, Suicidal Tendencies and the Vandals; reggaeton specialists Don Omar and Nicky Jam, and many others.
With anticipation for the multi-stage, multi-day event at an all-time high, organizers are once again whetting our whistle by formally announcing round #2 of the festival's performers -- along with its daily lineups.
On Tuesday, Aug. 27, Wonderfront grew to more than 95 artists with the addition of Guitar Legends 3 (featuring an all-star band of surprise guests -- previous concerts have featured Billy Gibbons, Dave Navarro, Robby Krieger, Joe Bonamassa, Stephen Stills and others), Migos, J.I.D., Jhay Cortez, Khea, Wild Belle, Gioli & Assia, Grandma, Jesse Baez, Banda Tierra Brava, Los Crecidos, Seis en Linea, Cydeways, Glades and Brewfish.
