The All Points West Music and Arts Festival, which hopes to become an east coast Coachella, is set for August 8th through 10th at Liberty State Park in New Jersey, with set times now available at the event website.  Radiohead will headline Friday and Saturday, and Jack Johnson tops Sunday’s bill.

Other Friday artists include Underworld, the New Pornogaphers, Duffy, Andrew Bird, Michael Franti, and Spearhead & the Go! Team.  Saturday will also feature Kings of Leon, Animal Collective, The Roots, and Sia.  Among Sunday’s artists are Ben Harper and the Innocent Criminals, Cat Power, Rodrigo & Gabriela, Trey Anatasio, The Secret Machines, Jason Isbell, Grace Potter & the Nocturnals, and Rogue Wave.
The festival will feature more than 45 artists on three stages at the 80-acre historic location, with panoramic views of the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, and the Manhattan skyline. 

Single-day tickets, three-day passes, and ferry tickets are still available, as are a limited number of carpool packages for Friday and Sunday.  Single-day festival passes are $89, and three-day festival passes are $258 – available via www.ticketmaster.com only.  Round-trip ferry service is available between Pier 11 in Manhattan (Wall Street & FDR) and Liberty State Park.  Ferry tickets are available for $25 in advance and $30 if purchased at the ferry box office on the day of the show.  Ferry tickets are also available via www.Ticketmaster.com, and individual tickets are required for each day, since there are no three-day ferry passes. Light rail service will also be available via NJ Transit/Hudson-Bergen Light Rail directly to the festival grounds.  For more information, visit www.njtransit.com.

All Points West is produced by Goldenvoice/AEG Live and Liberty Events in association with the HighLine Ballroom.  For more info and updates, head to www.apwfestival.com.
