One of our favorite summer festivals is only weeks away! A new and improved FYF Fest 2015 will be held at the Los Angeles Sports Arena & Exposition Park near USC on Saturday, August 22, and Sunday, August 23. In addition to a great lineup, FYF Fest 2015 also will feature many improvements, including expanded entrances, more efficient walkways, access to more bathrooms, and an additional stage. After some of last year's issues, festival organizers are ready to prove that this second year at Los Angeles Sports Arena & Exposition Park will run much smoother.
As previously reported, Frank Ocean will headline Saturday, August 22, and Morrissey will headline Sunday, August 23. Also scheduled to perform: Alvvays, Andrew Jackson Jihad, Battles, Belle & Sebastian, Bloc Party, Broncho, Cold Cave, D'Angelo and the Vanguard, Death Grips, Deerhunter, Mac DeMarco, Dinosaur Jr., The Drums, Chet Faker, Flume, DJ Harvey, Health, Jon Hopkins, Tobias Jesso Jr., The Jesus and Mary Chain, FKA Twigs, Nicolas Jaar, Kaytranada, Lower Dens, Laura Marling, Melody's Echo Chamber, Neon Indian, Purity Ring, Run The Jewels, Savages, Shlohmo, Solange, Spiritualized, Tennis, Thee Oh Sees, Title Fight, Toro Y Moi, Unknown Mortal Orchestra, and many more!

Looking forward to MUCH faster entry, craft beer that doesn't sell out too fast, and hot boys as far as the eye can see. Plus some groovy tunes.

Getting around the grounds easier, especially in and out of the arena!

Looking forward to Frank Ocean - and actually hearing something from his nonexistent new album - and getting in for free ;)

I'd love to win these tickets because I really want to see Frank Ocean, Morrissey, Bloc Party, Toro y Moi, D'Angelo, Title Fight,Joyce Manor, Cold Cave, Run the Jewels, & Death grips! I also want to grub some delicious vegan food & enjoy a drink or two! 😎

It would be a dream to see Frank Ocean in the flesh. Oh and of course Chet Faker and Flume!
Posted by: Tamaradr | Aug 10, 2015 at 11:55 PM
I heard that last year's festival had a lot of flaws which made me scared to get tickets this year. I hope that they didn't oversell the festival because I heard parts of the venues had to be barricaded last year due to too many people.
As for bands I would truly love to see FKA Twigs, BBNG, Melody's Echo Chamber, and Belle and Sebastian!

Morrissey! I've gotten screwed out of seeing him like five times in a row
Posted by: Asantillan89 | Aug 11, 2015 at 10:34 PM
I'm looking forward to Deerhunter, Jesus and Mary Chain, lower dens, belle and sebastian and bloc party, I can't afford to go this year and really want to see DEERHUNTER, I would also want to be able to say that I once saw Morrissey!
