Southern California’s most iconic celebration of music, art, food, and coastal living is coming back strong. BeachLife Festival, now entering its seventh year, will once again take over Redondo Beach’s scenic shoreline May 1 to 3, 2026, offering fans an immersive three-day experience where sun, sound, and surf converge.
Following a high-energy BeachLife 2025 edition that brought 35,000 attendees to the waterfront for unforgettable performances from Lenny Kravitz, Alanis Morissette, Sublime, The Beach Boys (with John Stamos), and more, BeachLife is gearing up for an even bigger return. Early bird tickets are officially on sale now at BeachLifeFestival.com, and with new perks, luxury upgrades, and fresh offerings, this is the year to lock in your pass early.
New in 2026: Elevated Ways to Experience the Festival
In addition to General Admission and VIP options, BeachLife 2026 introduces the Industry Sky Deck, a premium shared suite experience at the main stage. Designed with corporate hosts, artists, and discerning guests in mind, the Sky Deck features plush indoor-outdoor seating for up to 25 guests, a fully catered experience including lunch, dinner, snacks, and late-night pizza, plus beer, wine, and non-alcoholic beverages, luxury restrooms, concierge services, and comfort amenities like blankets and heat lamps. It’s hospitality with a sea breeze.
For the ultimate BeachLife treatment, returning Captain and Captain Plus passes include exclusive access to the Captain’s Bungalow lounge, sidestage views, meet-and-greets, complimentary top-tier food and drink, and private parking. Captain Plus upgrades the experience even further, granting access to the California Surf Club, a new invite-only luxury beach retreat with celebrity chef dining and a laid-back SoCal vibe.

Not Just Music – A Full Coastal Lifestyle
BeachLife has earned its reputation as SoCal’s premier coastal lifestyle festival for good reason. Every detail, from the stage setup to the food offerings, reflects the spirit of beach culture.
In 2025, fans soaked up performances across four distinct stages, with diverse acts ranging from rock to reggae and jam bands to pop icons. But it was more than the music that left a lasting impression. The Captain’s Culinary Experience, curated by Michelin-starred Chef Curtis Stone, brought fine dining to the beachfront, while BeachLife Executive Chef Dennis Horton debuted a luxe VIP menu at the brand-new California Surf Club.
With immersive art installations, boutique shopping, local brand activations, and sustainability initiatives woven throughout the grounds, BeachLife stands out as a full sensory celebration of SoCal life.
Looking Ahead: 2026 Lineup Coming Soon
The full BeachLife 2026 lineup will be announced later this year, but anticipation is already high. If 2025’s roster was any indication, with icons like Train, The Pretenders, Jackson Browne, CAKE, Mt. Joy, O.A.R., and many more, it’s safe to say BeachLife will once again deliver a genre-spanning mix of legendary performers and buzzworthy newcomers.
Whether you’re swaying to golden hour tunes with a cocktail in hand, indulging in gourmet bites with ocean views, or dancing barefoot in the sand, BeachLife Festival is where California dreams live loud.
