The University of Arkansas Headliners Committee today announced that Swedish electronic band Galantis, indie pop band Bleachers, and rapper Lil Dicky will headline the festival, set for Saturday, April 28 at the Washington County Fairgrounds.

Ville and local band, Elephantom were also announced as part of the bill.

Past performers include Big Sean, Young the Giant, Caitlyn Smith, Diplo, Wiz Khalifa, Børns, Mutemath, Moxie Raia, MisterWives, and others.

Student tickets are free, and will be available to reserve beginning on April 7 here.
