SAN JOSE, Calif. — BottleRock Napa Valley is set to celebrate its 10th anniversary with Red Hot Chili Peppers, Post Malone, Lizzo, Duran Duran, Lil Nas X and the Smashing Pumpkins.
Looking beyond those headliner acts, the festival will also feature such acts as Leon Bridges, Billy Strings, Wu-Tang Clan, the National, Caamp, Sheryl Crow, Nile Rodgers & Chic, Carly Rae Jepsen, Lupe Fiasco, Los Lobos, War, Taj Mahal and Mike Campbell & the Dirty Knobs.
In all, the 2023 lineup — which was announced Monday morning — will feature more than 75 acts performing over three days, May 26-28, at the Napa Valley Expo in downtown Napa.
“Our 2023 lineup is a classic BottleRock lineup, with something for everyone and lots to discover,” says Dave Graham, CEO of festival producers Latitude 38 Entertainment. “Our headliners really reflect what we strive to offer — some of the biggest and hottest acts on the planet while including a variety of genres.
“And since our festival layout is so compact, you really don’t have to choose one act over the other. Every day offers some great options to create your own experience.”
Three-day passes, ranging in price from $389 for general admission to $5,495 for platinum ducats, go on sale at noon Tuesday via bottlerocknapavalley.com.
One of the biggest annual selling points of BottleRock is the depth of the lineup — and 2023 is certainly no exception to the rule. Besides the big marque headliner names, the festival offers plenty of buzz bands, rising stars and newer acts on the undercard.
“We pride ourselves on presenting many of the biggest names in the business, but also amazing up-and-coming acts to discover like Nicky Youre, Half-Alive, Alvaro Diaz, Joey Valance & Brae, Christone ‘Kingfish’ Ingram, Maude Latour and Paris Jackson,” Graham says. “We believe that each of these acts could one day be headlining big stages. This year’s lineup of up-and-coming acts is our deepest ever.”
