Genre Trends at America's Biggest Music Festivals

Music festivals are not static entities. Just as musical tastes change through the years, music festivals can vary and evolve the makeup of their lineups.

Vivid Seats studied the music genre makeup of four major music festivals by assigning a music genre to every festival performer over the last five years. We then charted the percentage of each music genre for all festivals yearly. Even in just a five-year window, it's clear that festivals are changing, as some genres of music grow in popularity while others shrink.

But no music festival is identical. Click the music genre tabs above each chart to single out a genre in each festival to observe its five-year trend.
