The Portola Festival in San Francisco was out of control Saturday, and it was impossible not to look and recall the tragedy in Houston.
The event went down at Pier 80 in San Fran, and it was packed with people … some of whom stormed the barricades to get inside for Fred Again and Charli XCX.
Whatever security was there … they were completely overwhelmed. It didn’t seem there was any serious attempt to control the crowd.
The Festival runs through Sunday and some of the biggest names in dance music are hitting the stage, including Flume, The Chemical Brothers, Gorgon City, Kaytranada, James Blake, M.I.A., Lane 8, Peggy Gou, Fatboy Slim, Caroline Polachek, Toro Y Moi, Caribou, Jamie xx, Four Tet+Floating Points and more.
The Festival is produced by Goldenvoice … the same org that puts on Coachella.
As far as we know, there were no serious injuries … at least so far.
