Los Angeles, CA — The highly anticipated ‘Head in the Clouds Los Angeles Festival 2025’ is set to take place on May 31 and June 1, featuring an exciting lineup of Asian pop and hip-hop artists. Among the headliners are K-pop icons G-Dragon and the legendary girl group 2NE1, who will perform their hits and bring their signature stage presence to the festival. Fans are thrilled to see these influential artists return to the stage in the United States, celebrating Asian music and culture. The festival promises an energetic atmosphere with a diverse lineup, interactive experiences, and a celebration of global music trends.

Head In The Clouds has brought its unique programming to New York City, Jakarta, Manila and China in recent years and now returns home to Los Angeles, where it will serve as a celebration of Asian-centric music, art, and cuisine. Described by Rolling Stone as a “who’s who’ of top Asian talent,” HITC brings its biggest lineup yet with headliners G-Dragon, 2NE1, Dean,  DPR Ian, Rich Brian, Porter Robinson (DJ Set), a highly anticipated Higher Brothers  reunion, The Magic Show?!? and 88rising’s 10-Year Anniversary Finale.

HITC marks G-Dragon’s exclusive 2025 North American Festival performance. One of the biggest global stars who has transcended K-pop, G-Dragon, will be joined by other notable superstars of the genre 2NE1, the pioneering and highly influential K-pop girl group, and Dean, the Korean RnB phenom. Other highlights include DPR Ian, the Australian-born singer who has become one of the world’s most streamed K-pop solo artists; Rich Brian, the 88rising-signed rapper and singer; and the long-awaited reunion of Higher Brothers, the Chinese rap group who became one of China’s biggest musical exports; a mysterious set titled “The Magic Show ?!?” which calls to mind a certain similarly titled smash album; and the always-anticipated 88rising finale set which promises to bring together a host of artists from across the label’s 10 year history.
