News: All Things Go Announces 2026 NYC Lineup

All Things Go NYC 2026 is a partnership between the following:

All Things Go, an independent music festival based in Washington, DC, Toronto, and New York, known for its innovative approach to curation and community. Since its founding back in 2011, All Things Go has showcased an impressive array of emerging, groundbreaking and renowned artists, including Billie Eilish, boygeniusLana Del ReyMaggie RogersHozierLordeLaufeyMitskiHAIMJanelle MonáeCharli XCXMUNACarly Rae JepsenBleachersTove Lo and a growing list of others.

At the heart of the festival is its passionate and inclusive fan community, lovingly known as “The Besties” that embodies the festival’s commitment to diversity and belonging. Newcomers are always warmly welcomed by the avid, curious and dedicated ATG audience. Some artists and fans have given ATG loving and cheeky nicknames, including “Gay-chella,” “All Things Gay,” and “Lesbopalozza.” 


Forest Hills Stadium, which initially cemented its place as an iconic American venues as the home of the U.S. Open, it hosted some of the most important tennis matches of its time. During the 1960s and 1970s, the stadium became known as a must-play for musical acts, hosting concerts by The Rolling StonesThe BeatlesBob DylanBarbara StreisandThe Monkees, and more. (The Monkees show remains infamous for having a then-little known Jimi Hendrix open — and then get booed off the stage.)

On the big and small screen, the venue’s grounds have played an important backdrop for films like Alfred Hitchcock’s Strangers on a Train and Wes Anderson’s The Royal Tannebaums, as well as countless TV shows. Sadly, when the U.S. Open moved to its current location in Flushing Meadows-Corona Park in 1977, the stadium fell into disrepair and its days as a venue faded from memory. 

Back in 2013, Madison House Presents partnered with the West Side Tennis Club to rehabilitate the stadium and bring events back to the storied venue. Over the years, I’ve seen a bunch of amazing shows there and have even shot a show there last year.

Yesterday, All Things Go announced the lineup for the third NYC edition. The 2026 edition will take place Friday, September 25, 2026 – Sunday, September 27, 2026 at the Forest Hills Stadium. This year’s headliners include Zara Larsson, who’ll be making her first-ever headlining festival appearance; the incredible Brandi Carlile; and ATG alumni MUNA, Lola Young and Carly Rae Jepsen. The three-day festival’s lineup will be rounded out by Sienna Spiro, The Beaches, Rebecca Black, Cara Delevingne, CMAT, Jensen McRae, Hemlocke Springs, comedian/musician Meg Stalter, and more.

“All Things Go, we have unfinished business,” Lola Young says. “I feel blessed and ready to take it to the next level. Thank you for having me back.”

MUNA’s return solidifies them as party of the ATG family. They added: extremely stoked to be headlining one of our favorite festivals to play in a city that means so much to this band. we can’t wait to see you, NYC! let’s go, lesbians!
