FOMO by Night 2019
An all-ages nighttime festival with Nicki Minaj as the headliner.
Overview
If you're not familiar with FOMO, it's Australia's clash-free one-day summer festival. When it announced it was coming back for a fourth year in January 2019 — with Nicki Minaj headlining, no less — tickets were snapped up at a fast pace. As such, the Brisbane leg of the daytime festival has already sold out. But not to worry. The festival organisers have tacked on an all-ages Friday night spin-off, which will hit Brisbane Showgrounds the night before the main event.
FOMO by Night will feature a condensed selection of FOMO's full lineup — but it doesn't leave off the headliner. Leading the program is famed American-Trinidadian rapper Minaj, who released her high-energy, highly acclaimed fourth album Queen just last month — which features everyone from The Weeknd to Ariana Grande, Eminem and Lil Wayne. Hot on her heels is Florida's Lil Pump is heading Down Under for the first time, bringing hits 'Gucci Gang', 'Esskeetit' and songs from his yet-to-be released album Harvard Dropout, and electro music producer Mura Masa will break up the hip hop and rap with his disco tunes. Also on the schedule is Dutch experimental artist San Holo and Brisbane's own Miss Blanks among others.
After the Brisbane show, FOMO by Night will head to Adelaide and Perth. Tickets go on sale on October 16.
