Marilyn Manson Part of Lineup of Rapper Travis Scott’s Astroworld Festival
There are surprise artists on festival bills, and then there’s Marilyn Manson appearing at the Astroworld Festival, the hip-hop-centric festival organized by rapper Travis Scott.
Scott announced the festival lineup today via Instagram, and Manson featured alongside Migos, Pharrell, Rosalia, Young Thug, Playboi Carti, Gucci Man, DaBaby, Megan Thee Stallion, Houston All Stars, Young Dolph + Key Glock, Sheck Wes, Pop Smoke, Don Toliver and Tay Keith.
This is the second year of Astroworld, and just like the first festival, the lineup wasn’t announced until the day before the festival itself. The festival will last for just one day, November 9, and take place at NRG Park in Houston, Texas.
