 ASU Programming and Activities Board announced Tinashe as Devilpalooza's headliner in an Instagram post on March 13.

PAB will be hosting the annual spring music festival on March 28 at the Sun Devil Fitness Complex Fields in Tempe.

According to her Spotify profile, Tinashe is known for her R&B singing, dancing and songwriting abilities. 

She released her most recent album, "Quantum Baby," in 2024, with "Nasty" peaking at No. 61 on the Billboard Hot 100 and going viral on TikTok. She is also known for her song "2 on" featuring ScHoolboy Q and "No Broke Boys" with DJ Disco Lines, each of which peaked inside the top 40 on the Billboard Hot 100.

She joins a long list of Devilpalooza headliners before her, including DJ Diesel and Steve Aoki.  

Before Tinashe goes on stage, the festival will be opened by the winner of PAB's Battle of the Bands competition. The Battle of the Bands competition is currently heading into the finals, and the Devilpalooza opener has yet to be announced.

The student-hosted festival will have food trucks, live performances and activities for attendees to engage with the ASU community.

Students from outside the Tempe campus can use cross-parking or utilize the various parking garages on campus. Students can also watch the event on a livestream if unable to attend, according to PAB's Sun Devil Central page.

The festival has a few policies students should read before attending the event. Students are only allowed to bring sealed, clear plastic water bottles and clear bags.
