2019 Wolf Trap Summer Lineup Features Nas & Many Others

| Posted on |

This year’s summer lineup at Wolf Trap is fierce, highlighted by all-time-greats from numerous genres and a three-set opening weekend by The Avett Brothers.

For most readers of Slackie Brown, the one date you’ll definitely need to circle is July 14th; Nas is coming to town for the 25th anniversary of Illmatic with the National Symphony Orchestra behind him. For film buffs, Wolf Trap already booked a Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire concert, as well as an E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial show. And for radio nerds, NPR’s popular Wait Wait…Don’t Tell Me! radio show is coming for a live event. Check out the rest of the highlights below…
