Olivia Rodrigo is starting her own festival for charity, and announced on Monday (June 22) that Chappell Roan, KATSEYE, Doechii, Stevie Nicks and more powerhouses are on the inaugural lineup.

Sharing a photo of the event’s poster showcasing the participating artists, Rodrigo revealed on Instagram that her very first Daisy Chain Fields festival will take place on Aug. 29 in Irvine, Calif. “truly never felt more excited to share a piece of news with you all,” she wrote. “i’ve had a dream of doing this festival for years and i am so ecstatic its finally coming true!!”


“Daisy Chain Fields features an all-women lineup and 100 percent of the net proceeds will go to charities dedicated to advancing and advocating for women and girls,” she continued. “the lineup is truly insane and full of my heroes and friends. i firmly believe that joy, community, and music can be the drivers of meaningful change and I’m hopeful this festival will be just that.”

Beyond hosting the festival, Rodrigo will also perform at the festival alongside Bikini Kill, Die Spitz, Eli, Garbage, Mitski, Not for Radio, Quiet Life, Rachel Chinouriri, Stantigold and the Breeders. Nicks is billed as one of three “special guests” alongside Karen O and Sarah McLachlan.

According to the press release, Daisy Chain Fields will benefit the organizations Baby2Baby, Black Mamas Matter Alliance, Center for Reproductive Rights, FreeFrom, Jhpiego, Johns Hopkins Center for Indigenous Health, National Domestic Workers Alliance, National Institute for Reproductive Health, National Women’s Law Center and Planned Parenthood. “By bringing together women in music and organizations helping shape a better future for women and girls, I hope we can build a community that inspires hope and positive change,” Rodrigo added in a statement.

Tickets will go on presale at 10 a.m. PT on Wednesday (June 24). Fans have until then to sign up via the newly created Daisy Chain Fields website to receive a presale passcode.

The festival is just the latest initiative Rodrigo has taken to make the world a better place for women and girls. In 2024, she launched her Fund 4 Good to raise money for reproductive rights, education and actions against domestic violence, later announcing that she had donated more than $2 million to charities through proceeds raised on her Guts World Tour. In 2025, Planned Parenthood presented her with its Catalyst of Change award.

Daisy Chain Fields undoubtedly takes inspiration from Lilith Fair, the groundbreaking all-women festival started by McLachlan in 1997, with Rodrigo appearing in a 2025 documentary about the music event. Rodrigo’s festival announcement comes 10 days after the release of her Billboard 200-topping third album, You Seem Pretty Sad for a Girl So in Love.

Toronto City Councillor Wants Live Nation to Pay for ‘Noise Monitoring’ at Rogers Stadium

York Centre’s James Pasternak is filing a motion with Toronto city council calling on the company to find a solution to recent noise complaints. A spokesperson for Live Nation Canada tells Billboard Canada it is committed to full compliance with all requirements and that "none of our shows this summer have exceeded sound levels allowed by the City."

Toronto’s York Centre city councillor James Pasternak is looking to Live Nation to address alleged noise issues at Rogers Stadium.

Although the Downsview Park venue — owned and operated by Live Nation — installed soundproof padding across the 50,000-capacity open-air stadium before its June 2025 opening, residents have claimed they can hear and feel the high volume of sound and music in their homes.
