Firefly Music Festival is nearly upon us for its 2017 installment, and festival goers from all over the world are flocking to Delaware to experience an unforgettable weekend in The Woodlands. The First State's largest music festival features an outstanding lineup year after year, providing a wide variety of artists spanning across multiple different genres of music.
In past years, Firefly has featured big name artists such as Deadmau5, Kings Of Leon, Major Lazer, The Killers, Snoop Dogg, Zedd, Foo Fighters, Outkast, Pretty Lights, Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Calvin Harris, and many, many more. 2017 is nothing short of what we expected, bringing forth an onslaught of talented artists ranging from local to global level reach.
The only difficult part of attending a music festival is determining how in the world you can manage to see all of your favorite artists and still make it to all the other great sets throughout each day. In order to assist in your festival planning, I have compiled a list of some of the Must-See sets on the Firefly 2017 Lineup, including the day, time, and stage you will be able to catch them on. I included artists of all genres, because if you only make it a point to attend the EDM acts at Firefly, you are really selling yourself short of the full experience, and after attending the festival for the past 2 years I can assure you it is truly a one of a kind experience.
