Governors Ball 2023

Live Stream, Webcast, TV, Lineup, Set Times

There aren't many major music festivals taking place in a location so close to a major metropolitan area, so it is the proximity to New York City that normally makes this event unique. The event used to be held at Randall's Island park, just off the coast of Manhattan, but this year we see the Governors Ball move to Flushing Meadows, Corona Park, but never fear, it won't change the huge crowds that turn out for a fabulous festival occasion.

The transport across from the city was a major logistical undertaking, while the lack of accommodation on the island itself means the city's hotels and guest houses also benefit from something of an additional out of season boom. With the new venue you can hop on the 7 train or the LIRR.

Taking place since 2011 and with an extensive lineup of top performers and big name acts that are now spread over a 3 day event, the Governors Ball brings crowds measured in the tens of thousands.

Live Stream

Previous years saw live streams available of the full festival both via Twitter and the AT&T website, so we expect good live coverage options again this year.

You can keep up with the very latest from the festival site via their official Facebook page or by using the excellent mobile app. Take a look back over past festival and catch up on new announcements on their YouTube Channel GovBallNYC or try Twitch for some coverage.

Tickets

Tickets are available on a single day or 3-day basis, with the 3 day option representing a decent saving if you can make it. There are also VIP options available to really boost your festival experience. Tickets are available online here:

Festival Accommodation

Given the space constraints there obviously isn't any festival accommodation on the island, but fortunately you're conveniently located right next to one of the most heavily hotel-populated regions in the world. Manhattan hotels are notoriously pricey but there are cheaper options to be had if you don't mind heading a little further out to areas such as Brooklyn, Queens or Jersey City.

You can check availability and make reservations for local hotels here.
