The vacuum flush toilets will provide a vastly more pleasant experience for patrons while also being more sustainable and environmentally friendly than traditional porta-potties.
The upcoming 10th edition of the Governors Ball Music Festival marks a major milestone for an event that originated as a shared pipe-dream between New Yorkers in their early 20’s who wanted to see their city play host to a music festival on par with the world’s best live music events. Deemed “A Festival With A New York Heart” by The New York Times, Governors Ball began modestly as a one-day inaugural affair in 2011, and has grown into a weekend-long annual tradition enjoyed by music fans from around North America and the world at large.
Governors Ball At 10 Years – A Retrospective
Described as “the East Coast’s only true great summer festival” by Rolling Stone, and “a true melting pot of cultures, styles and sounds” by Variety, the crowds, sights, delicious eats found each year at Governors Ball are emblematic of the great city the festival calls home. The 2020 edition will again feature a signature lineup of the best food NYC has to offer, as well as craft cocktails, beer, lawn games, surprise pop-up performances from subway and street performers, eye-catching art installations, and more.
Throughout Governors Ball’s history, Founders Entertainment has strived to provide a thoroughly positive experience for attendees. As part of that commitment, for the 2020 event Governors Ball has announced upgrades to VIP programming, festival site and experience improvements, and a new age policy requiring persons under 18 years of age to attend with an adult aged 21 or older.
