As the summer sun prepares to shine over San Francisco, Outside Lands 2024 at Golden Gate Park has announced a significant change to its lineup. Pop superstar Sabrina Carpenter will now take the stage as the headliner for the Lands End Stage on Saturday, August 10, replacing Tyler, The Creator, who had to cancel his performance.

This unexpected shift follows a heartfelt statement from Tyler, The Creator, released this morning: “i hate saying this but i have to cancel lollapalooza and outside lands. i made a commitment that i can no longer keep, and that bums me out knowing how excited folks were. that is not sexy at all. please please forgive me or call me names when you see me in person. love…”

Sabrina Carpenter's inclusion as a headliner marks a significant milestone in her burgeoning career. This will be her debut performance at Outside Lands and her first major North American festival headliner billing. The timing couldn't be better, as her new album, "Short n’ Sweet," is set to release on August 23. Carpenter is already dominating the airwaves with her platinum-certified hit "Espresso" and her new single "Please, Please, Please," which recently debuted at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Outside Lands has a reputation for delivering stellar lineups, and this year is no exception. Friday's primetime performances will feature The Killers, Daniel Caesar, JUNGLE, Gryffin, and Young The Giant, setting a high bar for the weekend. Saturday, now headlined by Sabrina Carpenter, will also include performances from The Postal Service, Grace Jones, Chris Lake, ScHoolboy Q, and FLETCHER, ensuring a day filled with diverse musical experiences.

The festival will close out on Sunday with an eclectic mix of artists such as Sturgill Simpson, Post Malone’s Special Country Set, KAYTRANADA, Teddy Swims, Victoria Monét, Chappell Roan, Slowdive, Killer Mike, and many more. Attendees can look forward to three days of musical bliss, surrounded by the picturesque setting of Golden Gate Park.
