Aminé Announces The Best Day Ever, New Portland Music Festival
Who's ready to have the best day ever? Calling all festival goers to Portland rapper Aminé’s inaugural music festival, “The Best Day Ever”. This festival will take place August 10th through 11th at the McMenamins Edgefield Amphitheater in Troutdale, Oregon. Featuring a diverse mix of Hip Hop, Rap, R&B, and Dance/Electronic, this festival won’t be one to miss.
Aminé came to fame after the release of his 2016 single, “Caroline”, which peaked on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 2017. Since then, he has collaborated with many other artists, including Kaytranada, who will be playing alongside BadBadNotGood, Karrahbooo, Madison Lst, Ravyn Lenae, Toro Y Moi and 3Way Heff during the two day festival.
Tickets for the festival are on sale as of 10 am on May 17th, and $0.25 from each ticket will be donated toward local charities. All ages are welcome for general admittance on the Edgefield lawn.
Aminé’s promotional videos on Instagram claim that this festival has been “years in the making”. In the video, Aminé tries to decide on a name for the festival before settling on the most obvious choice: The Best Day Ever. If you’re a devoted fan of Aminé or just looking to have a good time this summer, make sure to snatch your tickets before it’s too late!
