Travis Scott’s third annual Astroworld festival is set to kick off during the first weekend of November, but the two-day event isn’t all that the Cactus Jack entertainer has up his sleeve.
In addition to the festival itself, Scott announced today a week-long Astroweek schedule of events that includes activations with frequent collaborators Nike and Jordan Brand. Sneaker fans will be especially interested in the Tuesday and Wednesday chances at an unnamed Travis Scott x Nike shoe through the brand’s SNKRS Pass feature.
The SNKRS Pass will take place at Scott’s store Space Village in Houston, and users will need to be within the proximity of the store for a chance to purchase. However, in July, Nike held a similar event in Boston for the Off-White x Air Force 1 Low “Lemonade” and many SNKRS users were able to spoof their location and gain access to the shoes despite being in other parts of the country. It’s not yet known if Nike has added any further parameters or safeguards to ensure the product only goes to people at the event.
In addition to the Travis Scott x Nike sneaker release, the rapper has a series of events scheduled with Jordan Brand including the unveiling of a co-branded Cactus Jacket basketball court and a celebrity golf tournament.
Readers can expect more information on the Astroweek events to be announced in the coming days.
