You can’t keep a great festival down. Pitchfork Music Festival returns this year, back to its familiar, sweltering midsummer run — July 15-17 this time out — and with a robust lineup.
Headlining this year’s three-day fest in Union Park, 1501 W. Randolph, are The National (who played the first Pitchfork in 2006), Mitski, and The Roots, Tuesday’s official announcement revealed.
Tickets go on sale at 10 a.m. March 11 at pitchforkmusicfestival.com.
