BUKU Announces Lineup For Planet B Music Festival

The BUKU Music + Art Project in New Orleans has announced the line up for their BUKU: Planet B festival. This version BUKU will be a one time only fall iteration of its normal spring festival. It is being held October 22 and 23 and will have over 50 acts at the Mardi Gras World on the banks of the Mississippi River.

For the past decade, BUKU has fostered a festival experience that proudly reflects the diverse and progressive subculture of New Orleans. It’s birthed the #BUKREWE, a community of festival lovers, carnival kings and queens, ragers and twerkers. Wild costumes, unhinged self-expression, and a myriad of personalities have made BUKU one of North America’s most unique places to party.

BUKU will have various acts from producers Kaytranada and Jamie xx, Australian dance music producer and vocalist Alison Wonderland, and the trio of bass titans Zeds Dead, Subtronics, and SVDDEN DEATH: VOYD. Adding to the diverse vibe, Chris Lake and Purple Disco Machine. Also including high-energy rappers EARTHGANG, Flo Milli, slowthai, Yung Baby Tate, and $NOT.

Attendees will be guided between multiple stage environments, a dizzying landscape of art installations, street-artist performances, and a multitude of surprises. Fans may find themselves mesmerized by a local graffiti artist, enhancing their costume with a custom face painting, joining a marching band procession, catching a pop-up breakdancing crew or just hanging with friends while gazing at the New Orleans skyline. It’s an urban oasis as much about oddities and community as it is about the headliners.

Presale ticketing for the lowest prices begins Thursday, June 10, at 10 a.m. CT. General tickets will be available on Monday, June 14, at 10am CT.
