    Great Customer Service

    I tested positive for Covid one day before I was scheduled to see a show I had been looking forward to for a long time. I called support and at 10 pm on a Monday they were able to transfer my tickets to the same seats the following month, to a date of my choosing. They coordinated with the box office and sent me follow ups every step of the way. Thanks Ash at Seat Geek!

    Thank you seat geek!

    Beat my head against the wall trying to buy tickets from another “officially sanctioned” outfit and nothing but frustration. Went to seat geek. 5 minutes later I have nice seats in my phone’s wallet. Easy

    MLB tickets

    In the last two weeks, we have used seat geek twice. Once for Yankees vs Blue jays and blue jays vs cubs. Each time the seat selection and delivery were easy. I wish the seats were a better deal but each city sets their prices. We are enjoying the app

About Governors Ball Music Festival Tickets

Governors Ball Music Festival, commonly known as Gov Ball, is a major New York City music festival that launched in 2011. It was founded by Founders Entertainment with the goal of creating a large-scale, multi-genre festival tailored to NYC’s diverse music culture. The first edition took place on Governors Island, giving the festival its name, and featured a mix of indie rock, hip-hop, and electronic artists. As attendance rapidly grew, the festival relocated to larger venues over the years, including Randall’s Island Park and later Citi Field and Flushing Meadows Corona Park in Queens.

Over the past decade, Governors Ball has become one of the most influential urban music festivals in the United States. It has hosted an impressive range of headliners spanning genres and generations, from rock and alternative acts to chart-topping hip-hop and pop stars. The festival has been known for booking artists at pivotal moments in their careers, often just before major mainstream breakthroughs, which helped cement its reputation as both trend-forward and culturally relevant. Gov Ball also distinguished itself by reflecting New York’s musical diversity, regularly blending underground acts with global superstars on the same lineup.

Beyond music, Governors Ball has evolved into a full-scale cultural event, incorporating food from notable New York restaurants, immersive art installations, and brand experiences that enhance the festival atmosphere. Despite weather challenges and logistical hurdles over the years, the festival has continued to adapt and expand its reach, maintaining strong attendance and national attention. Today, Governors Ball stands as a staple of the summer festival circuit and a defining live-music event for New York City, known for its ambitious lineups and lasting impact on the modern festival landscape.
