More outdoor performers have been confirmed, as well, including Pip the Pansy, Nicholas Mallis and the Borealis, Wieuca and Sam Burchfield.
AthFest also announced several genre-based venue lineups, including The Foundry’s country showcase on Friday and Athens Latin Party the following night, and the popular AthFactor hip-hop showcase, which will return Saturday at Live Wire, with lineup to be announced.
Club Crawl wristbands can be purchased at athfest.com for $20 until tomorrow, May 1, when the price increases to $25. Proceeds benefit the festival’s parent nonprofit, AthFest Educates, which supports arts and music education in local schools.
