The comedy tent for that weekend will include sets by Maya Rudolph’s Prince cover band Princess, Nick Swardson and Eric André, among others.

Its comedy stage will feature sets by Demitri Martin, Eugene Mirman, W. Kamau Bell, John Hodgeman and more. The weekend will also feature a fireworks show.

“There has never been a time in history with as much access to new music as we are experiencing right now,” Sasquatch! founder and coproducer Adam Zacks said in a statement. “We are excited to offer two unique weekends to explore over 200 of the best and brightest in this golden era of music discovery.”

Sasquatch! produced the video below, showing the growth of two sasquatch twins into a beastly rock band that plays music as the lineups for each festival run over the screen.
