Jack Antonoff announces inaugural Shadow Of The City Music West Festival

03 June 2025, 10:45 | Written by Tyler Damara Kelly

Jack Antonoff is set to bring Shadow Of The City Music Festival to the West Coast for the very first time on 25 October at Great Park Live in Irvine, CA.

The lineup will feature Bleachers' only West Coast headline performance of 2025, accompanied by the likes of Remi Wolf, The Maine, Hemlocke Springs, Bartees Strange, Chris Fleming, and Cassandra Coleman.

“Growing up on tour, when I would play in Orange County, I would come home and tell people that the shows had the Jersey feeling. I didn't have the “Shadow Of The City” language in my head back then but I knew what was coming from the audience. Some of the best nights of my life happened at Chain Reaction. So… Orange County here we come! I cannot wait to bring this festival to the West Coast for the first time ever,” Jack Antonoff says.

Shadow of The City originated as a tribute to Antonoff’s home state of New Jersey, to celebrate the state's rich music scene, and has since developed into a yearly sold-out festival dedicated to building community and accessible events for music lovers. Shadow of The City West Festival marks the first expansion of Antonoff's vision beyond the East Coast, bringing the festival to Great Park Live in Irvine, CA.

Tickets for the one-day festival are on sale now via AXS.com. A portion of the proceeds will also be donated to the Ally Coalition.
