Marking this as the day I discovered that Governors Ball was not in fact, held in The White House. After cancelling and relocating sets from Soccer Mommy, Charli XCX and SOB X RBE earlier today, the festival was forced to call an emergency evacuation, cancelling headlining sets from SZA and The Strokes.
“Due to approaching severe weather an evacuation is in effect. Please proceed to the nearest exit” the festival shared in a social post.

Of course, the party doesn’t stop for Charli XCX, who didn’t get the opportunity to play her set so organised a surprise gig at Le Poisson Rouge in New York City.
