Summit, Kaskade, Cassian, and more will perform at the new two-day dance music fest on Randall’s Island
John Summit is launching a new EDM festival in NYC this fall: Experts Only Festival will take place on Randall’s Island in New York City on September 20 and 21.
Summit’s new festival is in partnership with Medium Rare, Relentless Beats, and EMW. Summit will put on two headlining sets and be joined by a stacked line-up featuring LP Giobbi, AYYBO, Kasablanka, DJ Seinfeld, TEED and Kaskade b2b Cassian. Summit personally curated the line-up.
Randall’s Island is the former home for Electric Zoo and Governors Ball. The familiar festival grounds will feature two state-of-the-art stages, interactive brand activations and a LIV Skydeck sponsored by LIV at Fontainebleau Las Vegas, which will feature VIP tables and bottle service.
Experts Only Festival is expected to draw 50,000 fans to Randall’s Island. Tickets go on sale on Friday July 11 at 10 a.m. ET. GA tickets start at $119.99 while VIP tickets cost $299.99. Platinum tier tickets will be available for $799.99. One dollar from every ticket sold will be donated to Femme House, a non-profit that champions equity in dance music by supporting women, gender-expansive, BIPOC, and LGBTQIA+ creatives through free education, mentorship, and community.
Summit has become one of the most in-demand DJs of the moment. He recently sold out shows at BMO Stadium and Kia Forum in Los Angeles as well as NYC’s Madison Square Garden. In 2023, he launched his label Experts Only, which has released all his music as well as tracks by Cassian, Mau P, Max Styler and more.
