BeachLife Ranch has gained a reputation for capturing the essence of Southern California’s idyllic culture and offering a unique and immersive experience for attendees since its launch in 2019. Building on its success, the festival expanded its brand last year with the inaugural BeachLife Ranch, a celebration of the fusion between California country and beach life culture.

This year, the 2nd annual event will take place from September 22-24, 2023, on the picturesque waterfront of Redondo Beach, CA, making it the sole major Country & Americana festival on the beach in Southern California. While distinct from the surf and skate beach culture of beach life, the festival shares the same spirit of love and respect for the outdoors, nature, friends, and community.

Joining him will be a lineup of top Country, Americana, and Roots talent including Brad Paisley, The Doobie Brothers, Cody Jinks, The Avett Brothers, Midland, Wynonna Judd, Shooter Jennings presents: The Highwaymen Revival, Blackberry Smoke, Shakey Graves, Chris Isaak, Parmalee, Easton Corbin, and many more.
