ALL POINTS WEST MUSIC & ARTS FESTIVAL

SET FOR

AUGUST 8, 9 AND 10

AT NEW JERSEY’S LIBERTY STATE PARK

The first annual ALL POINTS WEST MUSIC & ARTS FESTIVAL is set for August 8, 9 and 10, 2008. The three-day, multi-stage music and arts festival will take place at Liberty State Park in New Jersey--a historic location offering panoramic views of the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island and the Manhattan skyline. The festival’s name is inspired by the area’s rich history, particularly Ellis Island and the NJ Central Railroad terminal located on the festival site, where many arriving immigrants boarded trains for ALL POINTS WEST.

Additional details regarding the line-up, ticketing and other information for ALL POINTS WEST will be announced in the coming weeks. A portion of the event’s proceeds will benefit “Friends of Liberty State Park.”

ALL POINTS WEST is produced by Goldenvoice/AEG Live and Liberty Events in association with the HighLine Ballroom. For up-to-the-minute information on the ALL POINTS WEST MUSIC & ARTS FESTIVAL, visit All Points West.

Ok i know this quote above is nothing substantial. What's important to note is that this festival is being put on by the same people that do coachella. Also I came across this on Pitchfork this morning....

Pitchfork: Radiohead to Play All Points West Festival-- Twice!

Radiohead to Play All Points West Festival-- Twice!
Looks like those rumors about Radiohead playing the inaugural edition of the All Points West Music & Arts Festival were true, as reported by URB Magazine and subsequently confirmed. All Points West, produced by AEG Live and Goldenvoice (aka the people behind Coachella), takes place August 8-10 in Liberty State Park in Jersey City, New Jersey. Radiohead will headline the first two nights, August 8 and 9.
