Green Day, Hozier and Fall Out Boy will headline the sophomore year of the Minnesota Yacht Club Festival, which returns to St. Paul’s Harriet Island Regional Park July 18 through 20.
Ticket prices start at $150 for a single day general admission and $275 for all three days, with numerous other options including VIP, Riverboat VIP and Platinum. The presale starts at 10 a.m. Thursday and concertgoers can sign up for a code at minnesotayachtclubfestival.com.
Red Hot Chili Peppers, Gwen Stefani and Alanis Morissette topped the bill at the inaugural Minnesota Yacht Club Festival, which was the first major rock and pop music festival on Harriet Island since 2012’s River’s Edge Music Festival. The event earned warm reviews from critics and fans and drew about 35,000 people each day.
Hozier and Fall Out Boy have performed in Twin Cities arenas in recent years, while Green Day played Target Field in 2021 and 2024.

The rest of the 2025 lineup includes a host of acts that have played Basilica Block Party and Rock the Garden in the past, including Train, Father John Misty, Weezer and O.A.R. In addition, Alabama Shakes will return to the stage for their first announced performance since 2017.
Homegrown acts include established favorites Motion City Soundtrack, Semisonic and Cory Wong along with newer artists Maygen and the Birdwatcher, Laamar, Raffaella, Landon Conrath and Mike Kota.
Live Nation owns 51 percent of Yacht Club organizers C3 Presents, an Austin, Texas, company that’s also behind Austin City Limits Music Festival, Voodoo Music + Arts Experience and the modern-day Lollapalooza. But Live Nation apparently allows C3 to follow its own path. In July, some concertgoers complained about food and drink prices, and long lines, but in terms of getting in and around the site, the infrastructure and general vibe, C3’s experience in mounting festivals became quite clear on the first day.
The full lineup includes:
July 18: Hozier, Alabama Shakes, Train, Sheryl Crow, Father John Misty, Gigi Perez, the 502s, Hamilton Leithauser, Mike Kota and Maygen and the Birdwatcher.
July 19: Fall Out Boy, Weezer, Remi Wolf, O.A.R., Cory Wong, Motion City Soundtrack, Silversun Pickups, Jake Clemons, Raffaella and Laamar.
July 20: Green Day, Sublime, 311, Garbage, Semisonic, Beach Bunny, the Beaches, Grace Bowers and the Hodge Podge, Winona Fighter and Landon Conrath.
