CITY HALL

About

Wedding bells will be ringing at our very own Golden Gate Park wedding venue, Outside Lands City Hall! Festival participants can host their marriage or recommitment ceremony throughout the weekend.

Outside Lands introduced Outside Lands City Hall as a festival experience in 2024 to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the Winter of Love, which marked the first same-sex marriage ceremonies in the U.S. at San Francisco’s City Hall. A donation of proceeds from Outside Lands City Hall ceremonies at the festival will be donated to Lambda Legal, a legal and education fund dedicated to LGBTQ+ civil rights.

FAQs

Do I have to buy a festival ticket?

Yes. A booking at Outside Lands City Hall is not a festival ticket. Festival tickets must be purchased separately to access Outside Lands and Outside Lands City Hall. To purchase your festival ticket, please visit our tickets page.

Do I need to bring anything?

Legal unions and recommitment ceremonies only. Participants must provide a marriage license for legal unions or a copy of marriage certificate for recommitment ceremonies.
