On Wednesday, WonderStruck announced its 2023 lineup boasting headliners Khalid, Nelly, Walker Hayes and Flo Rida. The event takes place July 8-9.

The increasingly popular music festival happens yearly at Lakeland Community College and this year’s bill offers a departure from previous, indie-heavy lineups — favoring pop, rap and R&B for the current iteration. Formerly, it was known as LaureLive music festival before a name change in 2019.

While this year’s WonderStruck forgoes the usual six-string titans it’s known for — Vampire Weekend and The Lumineers headlined last year — rock-loving Clevelanders will have the chance to catch bands like The Struts among (maybe) unexpected talent including ex-Disney stars Aly & AJ.

Tickets for the event go on sale Saturday Feb. 18, with the chance to win two VIP passes if you comment on Wonderstruck’s recent announcement post before midnight, Feb. 17.
