FKA Twigs and Cardi B are officially locked in as headliners for New York’s Ladyland Festival this June, and fans are already buzzing.
After a whirlwind of visa drama, FKA Twigs is finally cleared to perform in the U.S., joining Cardi B to top the bill at Brooklyn’s Under the K Bridge on June 27 and 28.
The pairing of FKA Twigs and Cardi B has fans hyped as these two powerhouse performers will headline on separate days-Cardi B on June 27 and FKA Twigs taking the spotlight on June 28. The lineup also features an eclectic mix of artists like Sofia Kourtesis, Pabllo Vittar, Eartheater, and Alex Chapman, promising a vibrant and diverse weekend of music.
Just a few weeks ago, FKA Twigs had to back out of her Coachella appearance, as well as multiple stops on her U.S. ‘Eusexua’ tour-including New York, Chicago, and Toronto, due to paperwork issues that left her without the necessary visa. She broke the news to fans on social media, saying she was “devastated” and “completely heartbroken,” especially after pouring so much of herself into the show’s creative vision.
In a video message, she explained how her team failed to submit the correct paperwork in time, which derailed her North American appearances. She also cleared up confusion about why her Toronto show was canceled despite not being in the U.S., citing the complexity of routing logistics for the tour. But now, with the visa mess behind her, she’s back and ready to hit the Ladyland stage.
Ladyland Festival has become a standout celebration of LGBTQ+ culture, art, and music in New York City, and having FKA Twigs and Cardi B lead this year’s lineup just raised the bar. Cardi’s energetic presence and Twigs’ ethereal performances offer two totally different but equally iconic vibes-making this one of the most exciting festival weekends of the summer.
