Looking to build upon and continue the success of last year's event, which saw thousands flock to historic Liberty State Park for three days of music and art set against the back-drop of Manhattan's famous skyline, Liberty Event is proud to be co-producing, in association with Goldenvoice/AEG Live and the Highline Ballroom, the second annual All Points West Music and Arts Festival. Featuring headliners Jay-Z, Tool, Coldplay, in addition to the 60+ other acts, this year's event promises to be a truly unique and unforgettable festival experience.

In addition to the headlining acts, All Points West's 2009 roster also includes performances from My Bloody Valentine, Echo & The Bunnymen, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Vampire Weekend, Fleet Foxes, Q-Tip, The Black Keys, MGMT, Arctic Monkeys, Crystal Castles, The National, and Neko Case.

Contributing to the buzz surrounding this year's All Points West is the inclusion of sets from some of today's hottest comedians, such as Michael Showalter, Tim & Eric, Eugene Mirman, Judah Friedlander, and Janeane Garofalo.
