Skrillex, Kygo, The Chainsmokers, and More To Headline Billboard Hot 100 Music Festival

Everyone knows Billboard as the king of music charting. If your track somehow makes it on one of their charts, consider that a huge bump in your career status. Gradually making their way into the electronic scene and using this to expand their reach even more, Billboard has officially thrown their hat into the growing festival circuit.

Labeled the Billboard Hot 100 Fest, it takes artists from it’s Top 100 chart. You’ve got the big names like Nicki Minaj, The Weekend and a special guest performance by Justin Bieber, but with the ever growing popularity of electronic music, Skrillex, Holy Ghost!, Axwell^Ingrosso and Kygo amongst a few dozen others rounding out the genre spanning freshman festival.

Taking place between August 22-23 at Nikon at Jones Beach Theater in New York, this first offering from Billboard is quite the stunner; bringing the best of the best and then some to accommodate the likes of more than a few different cliques. You can snag tickets today which include four individual ticket types.
