Fresh off the announce of their second annual “Wild Life Festival” in the U.K., Disclosure is proud to announce that “Wild Life” will return to North America with a new series of events, including a massive concert at Forest Hills Stadium in Queens, NY on June 18, which will feature performances by Disclosure, Anderson .Paak & The Free Nationals, Mobb Deep, Dusky and Justin Jay. According to Disclosure, “they’re thrilled and honored  to bring this special event to a venue with such rich history.”  Forest Hills Stadium was built in 1923 as the home of the US Open tennis tournament and hosted concerts by The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan and other musical greats in the 1960s and 70s. After being shuttered for nearly 20 years, it has reopened and is once again hosting incredible concerts.

The pair stage the events at unique sites and curate the entire experience, creating line-ups designed to pay homage to their favorite house acts and shine a spotlight on new music across genre lines, from electronic to hip-hop and more.
