Three Reasons To Attend III Points Festival

III Points are officially back and bringing their fifth annual Music, Art, and Technology Festival October 13th - 15th, 2017 to the heart of Miami, Florida. III Points takes pride in providing a extremely unique yet futuristic setting for all artists and attendees alike. Here's our annual three reasons why attending III Points Festival this year is an absolute must.

1. LINEUP

Year after year, III Points has continued to support our South Florida music scene as well as bring an insane amount of national talent to the table. To say the least, these three heavy hitting headliners are more than enough of a reason to make your way to this year's event. Gorillaz, The XX, and Nicolas Jaar are ALL providing an efficient headlining experience that defines what III Points is all about. Please note that this will be the Gorillaz, ONE and ONLY Florida appearance.

The vibe doesn't even come close to stopping there with notorious indie, hip hop, psychedelic, and electronic artists that will keep you more than intrigued throughout the day. Some of our highlighted acts this year include Danny Brown, Thundercat, Lil B, Mark Ronson vs Kevin Parker (of Tame Impala), BADBADNOTGOOD, Willow Smith, Bonobo, Rüfüs Du Sol, Kali Uchis, Hundred Waters, Jacuzzi Boys, Twelve'len, along with seriously so many more.

2. LOCATION

We're beyond relieved that this year's event will be taking place once again at the legendary Mana Wynwood Convention Center for the third consecutive year in a row. III Points has done a phenomenal job providing year round events in the Wynwood Art District such as film festivals, day parties, Art Basel gigs, and a number of live performances from bands, rap artists, and DJs alike.

Remember, you’re in Miami Florida. You literally have the world at your hands and can enjoy a number of activities South Florida has to offer because the event will not be starting until 5 PM each day. Get your Cuban cuisine on, enjoy the water on South Beach, and enjoy the history our beautiful city has to offer. Your options are simply limitless with a perfect lineup along with an absolutely perfect location, we couldn’t ask for better convenience.

3. THE ENVIRONMENT

This is an entire new chapter for III Points and we cannot be anymore excited to see what is to come from their biggest lineup yet.  You can even expect, Brian Eno, to present a custom made audio installation he calls, The Ship, which will truly be a once in a lifetime opportunity the first night Friday October 13th.

If you're worried about food, drink, and the heat during the day itself; please find comfort knowing there are multiple indoor locations of the festival where you can find spectacular vendors, art, and performance stages. 

The combination of each factor listed above truly accomplishes another sense of bringing people together. The curated artists, production, location, amount of space, art, technology, and all around pure vibes is what makes this event what it truly is.

III Points is a leading example of what the festival industry should be aiming for. Now it's time to start telling everyone and their mother where you'll be October 13th - 15th, 2017.

Bonnaroo Releases Stacked 2017 Lineup

Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival, a concert event to some and an art utopia for many, has just released an unbelievably stacked 2017 lineup. We're happy to celebrate Bonnaroo's 16th birthday June 8th - 11th back at the beautiful Great Stage Park in Manchester, Tennessee. 

Festival season is officially among us people! Bonnaroo is back at it with a notorious group of artists to fulfill all your dreams on The Farm. We're excited to see heavy hitting headlining acts Red Hot Chili Peppers, U2 (Performing The Joshua Tree), The Weeknd, and Chance The Rapper.

After much anticipation we are beyond stoked that Bonnaroo just delivered one of their most powerful lineups, definitely another great way to enter the new year. Just take a look at the gnarly mixture of artists you can boogie to. Click any of our highlighted acts to see what Bonnaroo is all about including The Orwells, Stick Figure, D.R.A.M., Getter, Flatbush Zombies, Jon Bellion, Milky Chance, Cold War Kids, Preservation Hall Jazz Band, Portugal. The Man, Umphrey's McGee, Tegan and Sara, Glass Animals, Crystal Castles, Tove Lo, Tory Lanez, Big Gigantic, Cage The Elephant, Marshmello, Travis Scott, Lorde, The XX, and Flume. Take a peek at the current lineup in it's entirety below.

Bonnaroo has been a second home for us twice in the past and seeing them curate another magical group of artists makes us happy inside. The Farm is nothing short of a life changing experience with four entire days of sunshine, pure vibes, interactive art, 700 acres of camping, 12+ performing stages, silent disco, secret sets, Superjams, and some of the best music in the game. 

Chance The Rapper's first Bonnaroo appearance was back in 2014 late night at the That Tent. Since then he's surprised The Farm with two performances in 2015 including a collaboration with Kendrick Lamar and Earth, Wind, & Fire as well as coming out for a guest appearance during J. Cole's headlining set in 2016. We're so jazzed to see Chance take his well earned spot and put on a true Bonnaroovian party.

Red Hot Chili Peppers are finally making a much needed return to Roo after one of the most energetic headlining sets in 2012. These guys will have you on a wild ride with their eleven album discography hit albums By The Way, Californiacation, Blood Sugar Sex Magik, Stadium Arcadium, I'm With You, The Getaway, and so many more.
