The organizers of BottleRock Napa Valley announced the line-up for its 2020 festival, returning to the Napa Valley Expo May 22-24. The festival picks up where it left off last year, presenting a dual-headliner format on the fest’s two largest stages. This year’s headlining group encompasses a wide range of styles and backgrounds.
BottleRock 2020 will feature headlining performances from Red Hot Chili Peppers, Dave Matthews Band, Stevie Nicks, Miley Cyrus, Khalid and Anderson .Paak & The Free Nationals. Three-day festival passes go on sale at 10 a.m. Jan. 7 at BottleRock’s official website.
“Our line-up once again features a wide variety of genres, combining legendary performers, up and coming bands, and some of the most talked about artists in the world,” BottleRock Napa Valley CEO Dave Graham said in a statement. “Our goal each year is to book the best acts available that fit our audience profile, and we’re very happy that it resulted in such a deep line-up.”
With over 80 bands on five stages, BottleRock builds on its track record of not only curating a diverse musical offering, but also showcasing regional wine and food. The Williams-Sonoma Culinary Stage will return again this year with a line-up of cooking demonstrations bringing together renowned chefs, celebrities, athletes and musicians. The full details and line-up for the culinary stage will be released at a later date.
Beyond the headliners, BottleRock’s line-up includes Zedd, Brandi Carlile, The Avett Brothers, Janelle Monáe, Maggie Rogers, Blondie, the Village People, Maren Morris and Tegan and Sara. This year’s festival also features sets from rising stars like CAAMP, Meg Myers, Atlas Genius and many more.
Tickets will range from $359 for a three-day General Admission pass to $4,350 for the all-inclusive “All Access” Platinum Pass. The top tier VIP offering includes artist meet and greets, access to the Platinum Lounge staffed with Master Mixologists and Master Sommeliers, as well as the opportunity to meet the winemakers and taste some of the top wines of the region.
“As always, we continue to improve the guest experience for all our attendees including raising the bar on the extraordinary food, wine, craft brews, spirits and hospitality,” Graham said.
