After announcing the return of the Pitchfork Music Festival in Chicago this fall, the website has today revealed the details of the first-ever Pitchfork Music Festival London and the return of Pitchfork Music Festival Paris. The London iteration will take place from November 10-14 this year and will run back-to-back with Pitchfork Music Festival Paris, running November 16-20.

The inaugural Pitchfork Music Festival London will include Stereolab, Moses Boyd, black midi, Bobby Gillespie & Jenny Beth, Tirzah, Anna Meredith, Mykki Blanco, Girl Band, Nilüfer Yanya, Iceage, Cassandra Jenkins, Martha Skye Murphy, and many more. Now in its 10th year, Pitchfork Music Festival Paris will include Bobby Gillespie & Jehnny Beth, Shygirl, Charlotte Adigéry & Bolis Pupul, Sons of Kemet, Nubya Garcia, Amaarae, Erika de Casier, Cassandra Jenkins, KeiyaA, L’ Rain, and Bartees Strange, and more. Check out the lineup for both festivals below.
“After an incredibly difficult year for artists, fans, and our music community, we’re excited to celebrate the return of live music with so many legendary venues across two of the most important music cities in the world,” Puja Patel, Editor-in-Chief of Pitchfork, said in a statement. “That we’re able to host festivals in London and Paris during the publication’s 25th anniversary feels all the more special.”
