Governors Ball is upon us. That’s right: the New York City-central summer music festival is back and ready for action, coming to a new venue in Flushing Meadows from June 9 to June 11. With headliners like Kendrick Lamar, Odesza, Lizzo, Diplo, and more, it’s sure to be a knockout weekend of musical events. But ahead of the 2023 season, let’s take a quick walk down memory lane looking at the best Governors Ball performer outfits over the years.
The fashion at Governors Ball never disappoints. Celebrities who hit the stage for the weekend have a way of mastering that skin-baring summer style with the off-beat, casual nature that New York City is known for during the warmest months of the year. While heatwave-friendly looks, complete with bralette tops, short shorts, and flirty dresses will surely take centerstage, here’s hoping that we also see tons of head-turning bodysuits, sheer layers, and cool graphic tees mixed right in.
As we take a trip down memory lane, ahead of this year’s event, we reminisce over some of the best on-stage Governors Ball looks from the last few years. We are reminded of Halsey’s killer red bikini set, topped with totally sheer pants; Dua Lipa‘s totally relatable activewear look; and Este Haim‘s bohemian-inspired mini dress.
For all that and more, check out the best of the best from Governors Ball through the years ahead.
