TRAVIS SCOTT WILL, once again, headline his own Astroworld Festival on Nov. 5 and 6 at NRG Park in Scott's hometown of Houston, per the lineup released today. Other featured performers invited by the multi-platinum rapper include Tame Impala, Earth Wind & Fire, SZA, Lil Baby and fellow H-Town hip-hop star Don Toliver.

The third annual festival sold out within an hour of tickets going live back in April, but in celebration of the lineup announcement, a limited number of two-day general admission and VIP tickets have been made available for purchase online at AstroworldFest.com.

As a nod to the festival namesake, the Astroworld experience will this year include an amusement park and carnival games and rides, such as a roller coaster and bumper cars. Prizes for the games include limited-edition Astroworld-branded items, plus ones from the Houston Astros, Raising Cane's, Air Jordans and others.

When the festival last occurred — in 2019, before Covid — it was said to have been the largest single-day, artist-curated music fest in the country, and one of the largest such events ever in Houston. Some 50,000 people attended. It expanded to two days due to "overwhelming demand," per a rep.

Astroworld is also the name of Scott's smash 2018 record, which was nominated for a Grammy and named one of the best albums of the year by several publications, according to online sources.

Exclusive Furniture’s Sam Zavary Credits Luck, Hard Work and ‘Mom’s Prayers’ for His Success

Exclusive Furniture’s Sam Zavary Credits Luck, Hard Work and ‘Mom’s Prayers’ for His Success

How did you get to where you are today? I am a firm believer that hard work and having dreams that you strive to achieve will motivate and inspire people to achieve their potential. Working hard, dreaming, and making sure to take advantage of every opportunity is something I learned at a young age. I credit God and God’s grace firstly, but I know that success is a direct result of hard work. I tell my podcast subscribers and followers to continue setting goals, evolving, improving, and planning, and I practice what I preach. I am proud to have started my business in the fastest growing major city in the United States, and I attribute a lot of the success of Exclusive Furniture to the family culture we create in the best city — Houston’s diversity, philanthropy, and innovation have helped me achieve a lot of the milestones in the furniture business (and the “low prices”) you see today!
