The National revive Cincinnati Homecoming festival w/ Pavement, Patti Smith, The Walkmen, more
The National have announced the return of their Homecoming festival in Cincinnati, happening on September 15 and 16 at The Icon Festival Stage at Smale Park. It’s the second iteration of the fest, following the inaugural edition in 2018. The band had planned to hold it again in 2020, but that was cancelled due to pandemic. “When we launched Homecoming in 2018, we were overwhelmed by the response from the community and by our renewed sense of connection to our hometown,” The National say. “We’re honored to return to Cincinnati five years later and be joined by so many of our favorite musicians and friends.”
The National headline both nights of the fest, playing a unique set each night. Saturday also features Patti Smith & Her Band, The Walkmen, Arooj Aftab, Bartees Strange, Carriers, and Ballard. Sunday’s lineup includes Pavement, Weyes Blood, Snail Mail, Julia Jacklin, The Drin, and Leo Pastel. See the poster below
Passes for Homecoming go on sale Friday (5/19) at 10am ET.
The National are currently on tour supporting their new album First Two Pages Of Frankenstein, including an NYC show with Patti Smith at Madison Square Garden on August 18. See all dates below.
