Astroworld Festival will be the first event of its kind for the host city and surrounding region as it looks to provide a thoughtfully-curated, multi-stage music event from Travis Scott, who was raised in nearby Missouri City, which is located just southwest of downtown Houston. The festival will provide an opportunity for fans of Travis Scott and modern music culture to experience an event curated by Travis himself. While the full music lineup will be revealed in the coming weeks, Travis Scott is confirmed as the festival’s headline performer.
