Why Disney and Universal are investing billions into their theme parks
The Walt Disney Company and Universal, two of the biggest names in theme parks, are both undertaking historic expansions to their experiences businesses. Universal Orlando Resort in May opened the gates to Epic Universe, its fourth theme park at its flagship resort. Epic cost an estimated $7 billion to build, according to numbers provided by the University of Central Florida. Brian Roberts, Chairman and CEO of Universal parent company Comcast, called it the "single-largest investment Comcast NBCUniversal has made in its theme park business". "It's so different than anything else that we've ever built, but certainly I think it's different than anything anyone's ever built," said Karen Irwin, Universal Orlando President and COO. Epic's opening coincides with an expansion of Universal Orlando's resort portfolio, adding three Loews hotels to bring its total to 11 operated on the property. Universal is betting that the addition of Epic will turn the resort into a full-week destination, a distinction that is normally reserved for its crosstown neighbor, Walt Disney World. Not to be upstaged, Disney is working on a historic undertaking of its own. In 2023, Disney announced plans to invest $60 billion in its experiences segment, which includes theme parks, cruise ships and consumer products. Of that investment, $30 billion will go to its domestic theme parks, Disney World and Disneyland. "We've got a lion's share of that investment coming to us," said Michael Hundgen, portfolio executive creative producer with Walt Disney Imagineering. "It's about finding what strikes the best creative intent in the most value oriented way possible." These investments come at a time when both Disney and Comcast are paring down or spinning off their linear TV segments, an arena that has seen volatility in recent years. By comparison, theme parks have been consistent revenue drivers for the companies in the post-COVID tourism bounce. However, the timing of these openings and expansions could prove challenging for both theme parks. Epic's opening summer coincides with fears of a travel slowdown due to economic volatility. "If you're uncertain how the economy is going to develop, then you're going to try to be more cautious in your spending," said Jorge Ridderstaat, associate professor at UCF's Rosen College of Hospitality Management.

Concerts to see this week: The Weeknd, ZZ Top, Pryes Block Party
Concerts to see this week: The Weeknd, ZZ Top, Pryes Block Party originally appeared on Bring Me The News. It may go underappreciated just how many opportunities there are to take in free concerts around the Twin Cities this summer. I don't have any nice stats about how the region compares to other cities, but it's nonetheless impressive. It's not just the quantity of free shows. There's quality there, too. The below listings don't have everything that's happening, but scanning the list, there's Minneapolis' music in the park series, shows on venue patios, the Stone Arch Bridge Festival, the Pryes Block Party (more on that shortly), and outdoor series in Rochester and Edina. Music lovers could almost certainly see live music every day of the summer without paying an admission fee. (Though, there are good reasons to pay a cover. We don't get the quality part of the equation if musicians can't make a living, and, as a study revealed last year, musicians in Minnesota are underpaid.) Whether you're grabbing a blanket and heading to a show in the park or shelling out for pricey tickets at U.S. Bank Stadium, here are some of the best shows you can catch around the Twin Cities this week. Monday, June 9, at The Fillmore For the first time in more than decade, Bloc Party is coming to the Twin Cities, and it'll feel like a throwback in more ways than one. The English group will be going back to the beginning, playing its debut, Silent Alarm, in its entirety. When the show was initially announced, Metric was lined up to play its 2009 record, Fantasies. They've since dropped off the tour, and the show moved from The Armory to The Fillmore. However, fans probably aren't going to complain about getting a more intimate show. Blonde Redhead and Family Dinner open. Wednesday, June 11–Saturday, June 14, at Wagon Wheel Ridge in Karlstad This isn't in the Twin Cities. It's not even close. But the Minnesota music festival draws big names in country music to northern Minnesota, making it a destination fest for many fans. This year's headliners include veterans Little Big Town, Grammy-nominated songwriter Tyler Childers, the Eli Young Band, Chayce Beckham, Kiss guitarist Ace Frehley, and others. Meanwhile, in St. Paul, Ben Harper & the Innocent Criminals will headline the Palace Theatre on June 12, at Ledge Amphitheater Waite Park will be home to a night of classic riffs as ZZ Top alights at The Ledge with a repertoire of songs you remember from KQRS, or, at least, from KQRS before that recent change. The Texas blues rock trio, now more than half a century deep into its career, will bring guitars, "La Grange," and swinging beards to venue that's a bit of a hot spot for splashy shows this summer. The group, which will have The Wallflowers opening, have carried on touring after the 2021 death of bassist Dusty Hill. Founding members Billy Gibbons and Frank Beard are now joined by the band's long-time guitar tech, Elwood Francis, on bass. After ZZ Top gets the week going, the Ledge will stay busy. Chicago hits the stage on Friday. On Sunday, "One Week" hitmakers the Barenaked Ladies arrive with fellow '90s radio rock groups Guster and Fastball. For those not ready to head to the suburbs, long-running Johnny Cash tribute group The Church of Cash will headline the Dakota. In St. Paul, Lowertown Sounds launches its summer series of free concerts at Mears park with a lineup that features the Flamin' Oh's and Faith Boblett. Saturday, June 14, at U.S. Bank Stadium The Weeknd is accompanying his new album, Hurry Up Tomorrow, with a tour that brings him to the Twin Cities for the first time since 2017. He's promised that the show includes a 'never-before-seen production' and a setlist focused on the album trilogy that wrapped up with this new album and a film of the same name. Playboi Carter and Mike Dean open. Saturday, June 14, at Pryes Brewing Pryes Brewing's 8th annual block party is free and packed with exciting local artists. This year's installment is headlined by the high-energy indie rock of Kiss the Tiger. Imbibers will also be treated to Chicago-based Americana songwriter Nathan Graham, Mary Bue, Of the Orchard, The Shackletons, The Roe Family Singers, and Fiddle and Flannels. It's a nice mix of indie rock and roots-infused locals.

The Best Moments From 15 Years of Governors Ball
This weekend, Governors Ball returns to NYC's Flushing Meadows Corona Park for another packed festival weekend — and the 2025 edition marks its 15th anniversary. Headliners Tyler, the Creator, Olivia Rodrigo, and Hozier are gearing up to create some memorable moments, as will the burgeoning acts who might just have their own breakout sets. As fans prepare for the start to another summer festival season, here's a look back at some jaw-dropping moments that have defined the celebration. In June of 2024, Chappell Roan was just about to hit a new apex of her career. She had put on a series of viral performances already: NPR's Tiny Desk, Colbert, Coachella. Little did everyone know that her appearance at Gov Ball would put her over the edge. She entered the stage in a giant apple, painted as the Statue of Liberty and smoking a blunt. It was dramatic, daring and, most importantly, fun. But before she even stole the weekend with both her iconic outfit and stellar performance, her reputation as the summer's must-catch live show preceded her: aerial shots of the crowd showed a headliner-worthy crowd filing in for her mid-day performance. More from Rolling Stone Chappell Roan Slams 'Villain' Reputation: 'If I Do Not Stand Up for Myself, I Will Quit' The Pop Queens Are the New Rock Gods Chappell Roan, Ariana Grande, and Ice Spice Will Guest Judge Historic 'Drag Race All Stars' 10 Attendees of Gov Ball's earliest years recall how severe weather constantly threatened the weekend. Any heavy rainfall would immediately upturn the ground at Randall's Island, the fest's former stomping grounds, leading to endless mud and a canceled weekend. When the last day of the 2016 weekend was canceled due to storms, headliner Kanye West announced a surprise show at Webster Hall later that night, a club with only a 1,350 person capacity. He didn't seem to anticipate that thousands more would show up, leading to chaos in the streets of Manhattan that West watched from the roof of his car. The show did not in fact go on due to the mayhem but at least those fans got a good story. When Azealia Banks joined the Gov Ball line-up in 2013, it had been two years since her last hometown show. She played in the Sky Vodka tent, a small side stage that could barely contain the thousands who spilled out and into the field to watch Banks put on a career-defining set. Clad in an orange bodysuit and joined by her back-up dancers, she gave a stellar pop show for the audience while still a year away from releasing her debut album. During his 2024 set, Peso Pluma made a wrong step and fractured his foot while performing. The moment went unnoticed by the audience but a crew member brought him a chair a little later in case he needed it. But like a true superstar, he powered through the injury and didn't give any less of a rousing set to all the fans. He just did the rest on mostly one foot. 'If I have it fractured, I don't give a s— because you all deserve a grand show,' he said. When OutKast announced their reunion in 2014, they became a big draw of the entire festival season. But a lackluster performance at Coachella that year left fans and critics wanting more. Thankfully, they had a headlining set at Gov Ball that summer to help redeem their live skills. The hits-laden set made Coachella look like it was just a rehearsal. Killer Mike joined the duo on stage to perform 'The Whole World.' Before Kendrick Lamar and 'Not Like Us,' there was Pusha T's 'Infrared.' The Clipse member was in the middle of a public beef with Drake when he played Gov Ball in 2018, replacing Brockhampton last minute. He performed his Drake diss 'Infrared' for the crowd, a track claimed Drake used ghostwriters. The song was so well-received that the audience transformed into a 'Fuck Drake!' chant not once but of Rolling Stone The 50 Greatest Eminem Songs All 274 of Taylor Swift's Songs, Ranked The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time
