The All Things Go Music Festival has announced a standout lineup for 2025, led by an unexpected trio of headliners: rapper Doechii, singer-songwriter Noah Kahan, and indie rocker Lucy Dacus. The three-day festival will return to Merriweather Post Pavilion in Columbia, Maryland, running September 26–28, 2025. Known for its eclectic and forward-thinking bills, All Things Go is once again blending genres and star power. In addition to the top-billed three, the festival’s slate features pop sensation Kesha, indie-pop favorite Clairo, alt-R&B band The Marías, and actor/musician Djo (the musical moniker of Stranger Things’ Joe Keery) among others. In total, over 40 artists are slated to perform across multiple stages, making it one of the festival’s biggest lineups yet. Notably, All Things Go will also hold a New York City edition at Forest Hills Stadium during the same weekend, expanding its coastal reach.
What makes this year’s lineup particularly notable is its emphasis on diversity and rising talent, while continuing All Things Go’s tradition of spotlighting women in music. Doechii’s inclusion as a headliner is a major coup – the Tampa-born rapper-singer is coming off a Grammy win for Best Rap Album earlier this year, and she represents a new wave of genre-blending hip-hop. Lucy Dacus, acclaimed for her solo work and as part of the indie supergroup boygenius, brings lyrical indie rock credentials and a strong female perspective to the top of the bill. Meanwhile, Noah Kahan has exploded in popularity over the past year thanks to his folk-pop anthems that have resonated with a broad audience – seeing his name in the headlining mix reflects his swift rise to mainstream success. Fans online have praised the festival for its bold mix: it’s not every day you see an alternative R&B/rap innovator, a folk-pop troubadour, and an introspective indie rocker sharing equal top billing. Tickets went on presale April 17, many are already planning pilgrimages to Maryland (or NYC) to catch this unique meeting of music worlds.
