Share this

The Summer Ends Music Festival in Tempe, Arizona is just around he corner and it is going to be one of the biggest festivals of the year. The 4-day music festival kicks off on September 24th and will take place in one of the coolest college towns around.

The festival is at Tempe Beach Park, which is just a couple miles away from the party school Arizona State University. Tempe Beach Park has hosted a lot of big festivals before and they have always turned out better than expected. The location is really ideal for a music festival and the weather should be a little cooler (fingers crossed). There are a handful of hotels nearby and it is also near the Lightrail, which makes getting around the Valley extremely convenient.

On Thursday, September 24th, artists like Hozier, Brandon Flowers and The Cold War Kids will kick off the festival. Brand New, Jimmy Eat World, Thrice and more will headline Friday’s show. Festivalgoers can check out J. Cole, Slightly Stoopid and other acts on Saturday. But Sunday is when the big acts take the stage. Kanye West, Chance the Rapper, Travis Scott and others will rock Tempe on the last day of the festival. Most people are really looking forward to Kanye, since he always puts on an entertaining show.

Tickets are a little pricey, starting at $54 dollars for each of the first 3 days. Sunday’s tickets go up to $135 dollars though. But they do offer a special price for 2-day tickets for only $130. There will also be a number of vendors selling plenty of food, drinks and alcoholic beverages (drink responsibly).

The Summer Ends Music Festival is going to cost you a pretty penny, but it is a 4-day festival full of some of the biggest and best musicians. Tempe Beach Park is always a lot of fun and one of the best places to go for a festival, so in the end it will be well worth it.
