ParkFest, the much-anticipated spring concert, is returning on April 26th, 2024.
Sponsored by the Student Activity Fee, a mandatory component of tuition for all undergraduates, this event is a testament to the University at Albany Student Association's commitment to creating vibrant, student-centered experiences. Set to unfold in the splendid Broadview Center, the newly renovated arena promises an ambiance that's both electric and intimate, ensuring an unforgettable night for all attendees.
This year's ParkFest is especially exciting, as students had the unique opportunity to directly influence the lineup through an open voting system. With top-tier nominees like Victoria Monet, Yung Gravy, NLE Choppa, and Earl Sweatshirt, the student body's voice will shape an event that's truly by the students, for the students. The anticipation is sky-high as we await the announcement of the headliner, promising a show that's not only reflective of the diverse tastes of our campus community but also setting the stage for what is poised to be the most memorable ParkFest to date.
Don't miss out on this hallmark event of the spring semester—where music, community, and the spirit of the University at Albany come together in perfect harmony. Stay tuned for the headliner reveal and get ready for an evening of live performances, electrifying energy, and the best of student life!
