New York City is getting a new music festival this fall as We Belong Here unveils its highly anticipated three-day festival. Taking place from October 4-6, 2024, at the iconic Wollman Rink in Central Park, the festival will feature headlining sets from electronic music powerhouses Fisher, Kaskade, and Monolink. This marks the first time the festival is venturing outside of Miami, where it has already established itself as a premier destination for electronic music fans.
Kaskade doesn’t need much of an introduction. The Grammy-nominated dance music legend, will make his Central Park debut, bringing his signature sound to one of the city’s most beloved landmarks. Joining him is the Berlin-based producer Monolink, renowned for his captivating blend of melodic techno and emotive soundscapes. Amongst his many impressive accolades, he holds the most viewed full-length performance ever from Burning Man, amassing over 23 million views on YouTube. Rounding out the headlining trio is Australian sensation Fisher, whose high-energy sets have solidified his status as a global dance music icon. He recently played three shows earlier this month at the Brooklyn Storehouse.
Presale tickets for We Belong Here will be available on Friday, August 2nd at 12 PM ET. Fans can sign up for the presale now HERE. General ticket sales start on Tuesday, August 6th at 12 PM ET.
Here’s what the organizers had to say about the festival:
“Our intention is to create truly one-of-a-kind experiences by bringing world-class artists to beautiful and historic locations.

Now, with an amazing team, we are able to bring it to life for the people of New York and the greater community of music lovers to enjoy together,” said Justin Dauman, Co-Founder of We Belong Here. “
We Belong Here recently welcomed over 10,000 guests to a series of pop-up events in New York this summer, from Governors Island to Pier 16. After three successful Miami festivals, this is the first time We Belong Here is bringing its renowned boutique festival experience and signature 360-degree stage to the heart of New York City.
