RB Weekend Preview: Following the Rainbow to Pot of Gold Music Festival

Lucky Man, Universatile, and RB are coming back this weekend to give you an even bigger and better Pot of Gold Music Festival 2016!

The festival will take place on the 17th and 19th of March, on Thursday and Saturday. On the first day FUTURE, Slightly Stoopid, Atmosphere, Dirty Heads, Ty Dolla $ign, and Fishbone are all going to be playing. The second day BIG SEAN, 311, Rebelution, Protoje, Earl Sweatshirt, COZZ, Katastro, and Mouse Powell are all performing.
