Kaytranada, PinkPantheress to Perform at Miami’s III Points Festival


Kaytranada will join PinkPantheress, Massive Attack, and Disclosure for the 2024 Miami music festival III Points. The festival is set to take place Oct. 18 and Oct. 19 in Miami’s Mana Wynwood. Vintage Culture, Isoxo, and Rezz were also announced as part of the main lineup Tuesday.

PinkPantheress and Kaytranada recently collaborated on “Snap My Finger,” off of Timeless. In a 2022 Rolling Stone Musicians on Musicians interview, PinkPantheress told Kaytranada, “I’ve got a very small circle of musicians I actually love, check their discography, and you are very much one of them.”

Other announced artists include Compton-born electronic artist Channel Tres, hyper dance artist horsegiirL, and indie-electronic musician Elderbrook.

Several artists, such as Rick Ross, Justice, Jungle, Bad Gyal, Toro Y Moi, and Jamie XX, were previously announced during phase one of the lineup. Acts like Arca, Cloonee, Mochakk, Sara Landry, Yung Lean, Sammy Virji, and Pawsa were also previously announced.

Tickets for III Points Festival go on sale Friday, June 14 at 1:11 p.m. ET via the festival website.

This year’s performance will mark Kaytranada’s return to the fall festival after taking the stage in 2021. Earlier this year, the artist released his third full-length album, Timeless. The 21-track album takes inspiration from Eighties New Wave, a shift from his club hits. As an artist whose latest album features Channel Tres, Anderson.PaaK, Tinashe, and Childish Gambino, the genre-bending producer, told Rolling Stone that he’s not always the loudest in the room. 

“I think I’m kind of shy,” he said for the cover of the June digital issue. “I always used to be very shy in the studio and sometimes let the artists just do their thing because I didn’t want to correct them or anything. It took me a while to understand, OK, I got to be the one that says ‘Do it like this.’ I don’t have a leader mentality. I’m learning to do that now.”
