Producers Danny Wimmer Presents are pleased to share the highly anticipated event’s set times, mobile app, additional onsite experiences and special local shows that will commemorate a decade of the popular fan-favorite festival. Fans can plan their entire four-day weekend down to the minute with the help of the Louder Than Life mobile app, presented by Lyte (www.louderthanlifefestival.com/mobileapp ), now available for download in app stores.
