New York's Governors Ball Music Festival successfully expanded to two days earlier this summer, becoming one of the city's premiere music events. Now, local fans have a weekend to look forward to next summer as the dates have been announced for the 2013 event.

It will take place Saturday, June 8 and Sunday, June 9 in Randall's Island Park, promising an eclectic mix of indie rock, hip-hop and dance music. The event is also adding more performance areas to the festival grounds, and expanding all the other festival-related goodies such as art installations, games, gourmet food trucks, craft beer, wine vendors, and more.
