SAN JOSE — Organizers of the Nigerian music festival that launched last year in Sacramento have announced their two-day fall celebration will be held in the San Jose park this October.
The successful inaugural edition of the Lost Festival at Riddim was held last fall in Sacramento’s Railyard District. According to a press release, the festival is moving to a new home at Lake Cunningham Park in San Jose for the October 1-2 festival. Organizers say the outdoor event will feature a much larger area with two main stages offering attendees non-overlapping performances as well as a third and much more intimate tent stage with all-day DJ sets. The new San Jose location will also have more space for art, vendors, and immersive dancing.
Much like last year’s event, the independent festival founded by the first two generations of African immigrants will once again feature Nigerian hip-hop artists Wizkid and Burna Boy alongside fellow African singer/producer Davido, who tops the list. African, Caribbean and Black music artists include Ella Mai, Skepta, Wale and Sean Paul.
Organizers — who also host the R&B/hip-hop/soul music festival Sacramento Sol Blume at Discovery Park — announced that tickets for the San Jose music festival will go on sale Monday, July 24, at 12 p.m. on the festival site. General admission will be available for $225 with weekend VIP tickets starting at $450. Fans who register on the website can register to buy pre-sale tickets before the general public at 9am. Additional information about the festival as well as a full list is available there..
