On Saturday, July 12th, across two stages in the venue's Main Hall and outdoor Ruins, this installment will highlight the blurring lines and fertile intersections between the next generation of pop, raw electronic music, hip-hop and more, featuring sets from Jockstrap, Kenny Mason, Jane Remover, HiTech, dazegxd and Kassie Krut. As with each new edition of Outline, the convergence of artists is one that fans will only ever experience at Knockdown Center.

Throughout 2025, Outline Festival is further expanding its commitment to an inspired, international curation of the moment's most groundbreaking performers and enduring experimental legends. Having been described as "catnip for adventurous listeners" (The New York Times), Outline brings out the best in both its artists and audience – every iteration continues to push the limits of creativity, and elevates the idea of what a venue and festival can and should be.
Earlier this spring, Knockdown Center began Outline's five-year anniversary with back-to-back weekends of post-punk, psychedelia, avant-garde and alternative music from some of the best to ever to it: Michael Rother, Thurston Moore, HTRK, Eiko Ishibashi in March, then Explosions In The Sky, múm, Mabe Fratti, They Are Gutting a Body of Water, upsammy, Diles Que No Me Maten in April.

About Knockdown Center
Featuring programming of diverse formats and media, Knockdown Center aims to create a radically cross-disciplinary environment. The particularity of our architectural environment and history leads us to gravitate toward projects that demonstrate a sensitive reactivity to site and environment. This 50,000 square-foot building has seen continuous use for more than 100 years: first as the Gleason-Tiebout glass factory, then as Manhattan Door factory. It is named for the Knock-Down door frame that was invented here in 1956 by Samuel Sklar and remains an industry standard to this day. The frame could be shipped in pieces — or "knocked down" — and installed into existing walls, revolutionizing the speed and efficiency of building construction. The factory has since remained in the Sklar family and is again a site for innovation. Having undergone a renovation that is equal parts preservationist and state of the art, Knockdown Center now produces and hosts cultural events and exhibitions that respond to its unique architecture and dimensions.
