Meow Wolf’s signature summer music festival, Vortex, returns to Denver this summer, bringing with it eclectic art installations and top-notch performers.
On Aug. 25-27, Vortex comes back to The JunkYard, a new-ish venue in Sun Valley that hosted the inaugural Mile High installment of the festival in 2022. According to an announcement Tuesday, Meow Wolf and Live Nation collaborated to bring “off-the-wall performers, chill zones, experiential art, and an eclectic curation of the hottest multigenre lineup of artists” to the Mile High City.
Performers include saxophone-infused electronic producer GRiZ, who will headline two of the three nights, singer Remi Wolf, DJs TOKiMONSTA and Mindchatter, and a couple of dozen others. (See the full lineup here.)
“I’m beyond excited to be playing Vortex this year!” said TOKiMONSTA in a statement. “I’ll be coming through with a special set for a special festival.”
Tickets to Vortex cost $59.50 per day or $219.50 for a three-day pass. Presale begins Thursday and tickets go on sale to the general public at 10 a.m. on Friday at vortex.meowwolf.com.
