Beijing Pop Festival will be held in Chaoyang Park on Sept. 8 and Sept. 9. Don’t let the name fool you, the festival is nothing “pop” but everything “Rock n’ Roll”.

This year’s line up is especially awesome. Including two of my personal favorites, Wan Xiaoli (万晓利）and Nin Inch Nails. Wan Xiaoli’s new album got a lot softer than before, a little bit too commercial for my taste. Let’s see if he can still rock this time. Nine Inch Nail’s “Closer” and “Hurt” have long been on my top rated playlist. I am excited to see them in person this time. So if you are in Beijing for the weekend, head to Chaoyang Park and enjoy the best music event of the year.
