Greta Van Fleet and Led Zeppelin singer Robert Plant are reportedly headed to Woodstock in August, Variety reports.
Jay-Z, Dead & Co., The Black Keys, Chance the Rapper, The Raconteurs, Imagine Dragons, Run the Jewels, Gary Clark Jr., Cage the Elephant, the Killers, Greta Van Fleet, Margo Price, Sturgill Simpson, Portugal the Man, Dawes, the Lumineers, Bishop Briggs, Pussy Riot, Courtney Barnett and Dorothy are set to play. Halsey, Miley Cyrus, Janelle Monae and Brandi Carlile are also said to be finalizing their commitments. Led Zeppelin singer Robert Plant is also expected to play.
Woodstock’s 50th anniversary takes place from August 16-18th. Variety reports, “The Woodstock fest taking place at Watkins Glen is indisputably the big one — but how big? That may still be an open question.The issue left to resolve for organizers is whether they’ll be permitted to have 75,000 people or 125,000. Naturally, they’d prefer the latter, a number that will still come up hundreds of thousands short of the crowd estimate at the historic ’69 gathering.”
In a statement issued on March 4, Woodstock co-founder Michael Lang said, “There’s always been lots of rumors around Woodstock. We have excellent partners and an incredible talent lineup of over 80 artists which will be announced within the next couple of weeks. We’re preparing a once in a lifetime event.”
