Where are the women on the Rolling Loud Europe lineup?
Gender disparity is an issue across the board for music festivals, but the gross lack of women on Rolling Loud Europe lineup is a major step in the wrong direction. The inaugural festival stop in Portugal revealed a slate of performers that skewed heavily male, so much so that it's nearly impossible to find more than one woman with a quick look-over. Out of a total 63 performers, only five women are set to take the stage; a mere 7.9 percent of the lineup.
On January 27, Rolling Loud Miami unveiled a lineup that wasn't much better in terms of gender balance. The list of 150 names spread over three days features only 23 women, or 15.3 percent. Many of the women found across the lineup are smaller acts — Megan Thee Stallion and City Girls are among the few top-billed acts that are women.
Attempts to close the gender gap onstage at music festivals have been feeble across the board, as exemplified by many lineups released prior to Rolling Loud 2020. Coachella 2020 doesn't feature a single woman headliner, with approximately one-third of acts identifying as or featuring at least one woman. Tennessee-based festival Bonnaroo announced its first woman headliner in its 18 year history with Lizzo, but has hovered at about 25 percent women on its lineup for the past few years.
