Back in October, we brought you the news that Justin Vernon would be hosting a two-day music festival, Eaux Claires Music and Art Festival, this coming summer in his hometown of Eau Claire, Wisconsin. Now, several months later, the Bon Iver frontman has finally shared the event’s official lineup. Check it out by following the jump below.

The weekend-long camp-out begins on July 17, and will take place at Foster Farms, a 20-acre expanse just outside of Eau Claire. The 40-band bill is a mix of familiar faces (Sufjan Stevens, The National, Spoon) and local up-and-comers (S. Carey, John Mueller, PHOX), ensuring that there will be no shortage of unique performances. Let us know if you plan on attending in the replies.

“We are very much creating a village for the weekend within our town, and for that reason it’s really exciting and it couldn’t be anywhere else,” Vernon said.

Tickets go on sale at noon tomorrow (Thursday, February 12) at eauxclaires.com.
