FYF Fest (short for "Fuck Yeah Fest Fest")[1] was an annual three-day music festival held at the Los Angeles Exposition Park in Los Angeles, California. It was founded by Sean Carlson in 2004[2] and later solely produced by Goldenvoice, a subsidiary of AEG Live. The event showcased many genres of music, including rock, pop, indie, electronic and hip hop as well as art installations and sculptures. The festival also had its own night market where people could buy food while watching the concerts. Throughout the whole park, four stages hosted live music. There was the Main Stage, the Lawn, the Arena, and the newest installment of the Woods.

Although FYF's popularity was not as big as Coachella or EDC, the festival showcased popular and established music artists. Notable artists included: Janet Jackson, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, MGMT, Interpol, Phoenix, Kanye West, Morrissey, Flume, The Strokes, Kendrick Lamar, Grace Jones, Frank Ocean, LCD Soundsystem, and D'Angelo.
