A lively Reddit thread on r/OutsideLands has sparked fan campaigns urging organizers to slot Lorde as a headliner replacement if any current acts drop out. This buzz arrives as Lorde prepares to release her new album Virgin on June 27, 2025, perfectly timed ahead of Outside Lands in August.
The current Outside Lands 2025 headliners are Tyler, The Creator, Hozier, and Doja Cat, but fans are expressing optimism about a surprise Lorde set—especially given her growing momentum and the introspective, minimalist vibe of Virgin. Supporters see her as an electrifying addition to Golden Gate Park’s main stage, while some fans remain cautious, debating whether the new material will resonate live or preferring other potential replacements.
Outside Lands runs August 8–10, and while the lineup is locked in, this petition reflects the ongoing excitement—and anxiety—that comes with festival season headliner shakeups. Lorde’s imminent album release date has fans dreaming of a last-minute mega booking that could transform the festival experience.
