Livies, get ready, because Olivia Rodrigo kicked off this week strong by dropping a major announcement on her socials on a random Monday afternoon. If you’re just hearing about the Daisy Chain Fields music festival, here’s everything you need to know about it.
In an Instagram post on Monday, June 22, Rodrigo revealed that she will be hosting her own music festival, called Daisy Chain Fields, on Saturday, Aug. 29 in Great Park in Irvine, California. And this festival is all about supporting women, from the all-women lineup of performers to the net profits that will support charities dedicated to advancing and advocating for women and girls.
The festival will feature artists from so many different eras and genres, including Rodrigo herself (of course!), Bikini Kill, Chappell Roan, Die Spitz, Doechii, Eli, Garbage, Katseye, Mitski, Not for Radio, Quiet Light, Rachel Chinouriri, Santigold, The Breeders, and special guests Karen O, Sarah McLachlan, and Stevie Nicks. Talk about a stacked lineup!
On top of the all-women performers, 100% of net profits from this festival will be supporting causes that aid women and girls. Some of the nonprofit orgs that this festival will donate to are Baby2Baby, Jhpiego, the National Institute for Reproductive Health, Black Mamas Alliance, John Hopkins Center for Indigenous Health, National Women’s Law Center, Center for Reproductive Rights, National Domestic Workers Alliance, Planned Parenthood, and Freeform. Outside of the profits going to these groups, attendees will have the opportunity to shop handcrafted goods from women-led businesses and makers at the festival, thus further supporting women on an individual level.
“Daisy Chain Fields is a festival founded on the belief that joy, community and creativity can inspire meaningful change. It affirms that music and collective experience can serve as enduring drivers of progress and social change. It’s a place where inspiration and curiosity lead to knowledge, strength and action,” Rodrigo said in the official mission statement for the festival on its website. “The festival celebrates the voices, artistry, and contributions of women in music, fostering an inclusive environment in which all are welcome. Daisy Chain offers more than live performances; it provides opportunities for education, dialogue, and engagement around issues affecting women and girls in the United States and globally.”
In the short time that Rodrigo’s post has been up, fans and brands have already been swarming her post with praise and positive comments about the festival, the lineup, and her mission behind it all. One commenter wrote “Most insane lineup… truly incredible. 💗” Another commenter shared the excitement writing, “ARTISTS SUPPORTING ARTISTS 👏👏😍.” One commenter even highlighted how Rodrigo is achieving so much as an artist at an incredible rate given she is only five years into her music career. “Being able to organize your own music festival and featuring all-female artists line-up in 5 years into your career. Oh godlivia you are in a league of your own 😮💨😮💨😮💨😮💨😮💨.” Brands recognized this feat as well and backed these sentiments up. Tumblr’s account commented, “ur so goated,” and MTV’s wrote, “you are incredible — and so is this lineup 🥹.”
