May 20th, 2014

For a smaller festival, Austin’s Fun Fun Fun Fest annually boasts one of the States’ strongest and most diverse lineups. I had an absolute blast when I attended the festival last year, and those planning to attend this year should expect a similar experience as the festival just announced its expectedly awesome 2014 lineup.

Headlining the festival’s metal and punk-centric Black Stage are Judas Priest, King Diamond (playing his first U.S. show since 2005) and Death From Above 1979. It also includes the second announced reunion gig from The Blood Brothers, following last week’s FYF Fest announcement.

The hip-hop and dance-oriented Blue Stage will be anchored by Nas (celebrating the 20th anniversary of Illmatic), Girl Talk and Wiz Khalifa, while the Orange Stage will feature indie rockers Death Cab For Cutie, Neutral Milk Hotel and Alt-J.

Fun Fun Fun Fest takes place on November 7-9 at Austin’s Auditorium Shores. The festival’s comedy stage and skate lineup will be announced at a later date, but for now, you can check out the complete lineup of musical acts below.
