Kanye West and The Weeknd will headline the 1st edition of The Meadows Music and Arts Festival in October in New York City. Founders Enjoyment announced Tuesday that Chance the Rapper, Kygo, Damian Marley, The 1975 and Bryson Tiller will also execute Oct. 1-two at Citi Area in the borough of Queens.

Founders Enjoyment also produces the Governors Ball music festival, which took place earlier this month in New York. The festival's third day, which was to feature West, was canceled due to undesirable weather.

Governors Ball ticket customers can buy tickets for the Meadows festival starting Wednesday. Tickets for the basic public go on sale Thursday. Other performers will include Grimes, Cage the Elephant, Empire of the Sun, Chromeo, Savages and Metric.
