YouTube is getting together with the organizers of the Outside Lands Music & Arts Festival to bring the show live to its users in the U.S. starting this Friday Aug 28th through to Sunday Aug 30th.

Top of the bill is Dave Mathews Band along with Jason Mraz, Raphael Saddiq, Thievery Corporation and many others all performing at the event in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park.

The live webcast will feature on youtube.com/outsidelands and fans will also be able to access an archive of selected performances and highlights on YouTube’s Outside Lands channel.

It’s the first major music festival on YouTube, though it has previously streamed its own live music event called YouTube Live which celebrated some of the community’s own discovered stars and artists.
