Hip-hop will take center stage again at the Firefly Music Festival in 2019.

For a second straight year, rap acts will headline two nights at the Woodlands in Dover when Firefly returns June 21 through 23.

Travis Scott caps off Saturday’s bill, while Post Malone closes out the three-day event, serving as the Sunday headliner.

Scott earned 3 Grammy nominations Friday, including Best Rap Album and Best Rap Performance. Malone grabbed 4 Grammy nods, including Album of the Year and best Rap/Sung Collaboration.

The third headline act is Panic!At The Disco, which tops Friday’s line-up.

Other acts slated to perform include X Ambassadors, TLC, Death Cab for Cutie and Vampire Weekend.

The three-day 2019 schedule is a day shorter than recent years, eliminating the Thursday slate of acts.

Tickets for the event’s 8th year in Dover go on sale Friday with prices starting at $279 for a General Admission pass.
