After spending only one year at Big Cypress in the Florida Everglades, the Langerado Festival heads back to the bright lights of the city on March 6-8 at Bicentennial Park in Miami. This marks the fifth change in venue over the course of the festival’s seven year history, which started in 2003.
Langerado’s promoters aim to release a lineup in November of the 60+ bands who will play at the festival’s four stages. Festival co-promoter Ethan Schwartz spoke to Billboard.com about what we can expect…
“From who we’ve booked so far it’s going to be really fresh,” Schwartz tells Billboard.com. “I would say that 75%-80% of the bands have never played the festival before.”
Bicentennial Park holds 35,000 people and the central location makes it easier for folks who only want to hit one day of the festie to attend. We’d bet that the late nights will once again be held off-site, as there’s probably a tight curfew at the park. Regardless, we’re happy to see Langerado return to its roots as an urban festival.
