Goldenvoice, the premier California music promoter and subsidiary of AEG Presents, is bringing back Just Like Heaven Festival for another unforgettable edition on Saturday, May 10, 2025, at Brookside at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, CA. Known for its stellar indie and alternative rock lineups, this year’s festival promises an electrifying mix of legendary artists, exciting reunions, and milestone album celebrations.
Leading the charge are Vampire Weekend and Rilo Kiley, along with an impressive roster of fan-favorite acts, including Empire of the Sun, Bloc Party, TV On The Radio, The Drums, Courtney Barnett, Toro y Moi, Unknown Mortal Orchestra, GROUPLOVE, Perfume Genius, The Sounds, Panda Bear, Beach Fossils, Peter Bjorn and John, and special guests Slowdive. More artists will be announced soon.
One of the most anticipated moments of the festival is the return of Rilo Kiley, reuniting for the first time in over 15 years. The band, originally formed in Los Angeles, expressed their excitement:
“We are so very excited to come back together for Just Like Heaven in Pasadena. As a band, we began here, and we feel so fortunate to return among so many artists and friends, to this community we hold so dear.”
Several artists on the lineup will be celebrating iconic album anniversaries at the festival:
- Bloc Party – Silent Alarm (20th Anniversary)
- Peter Bjorn and John – Writer’s Block (20th Anniversary)
- Courtney Barnett – Sometimes I Sit and Think, and Sometimes I Just Sit (10th Anniversary)
Meanwhile, indie-rock legends TV On The Radio continue their long-awaited comeback after sold-out shows in NYC and LA late last year. In solidarity with their California fans, the band expressed support for those affected by the Altadena & Palisades wildfires:
“We are looking forward to playing in Pasadena with so many friends in May. With LA still experiencing these devastating fires, we are sending our love and support to all those affected.”
Goldenvoice and the Rose Bowl Operating Company have donated $250,000 to the Eaton Fire Relief & Recovery Fund, supporting local nonprofits aiding fire-affected communities. Fans interested in donating can visit JustLikeHeavenFest.com.
Additionally, verified first responders can claim two complimentary GA passes as a token of appreciation for their service in wildfire-affected areas. Limited availability while supplies last.
