Enjoy performances from leading bands and special artists-at-large on two alternating stages, plus up-close music workshops and exclusive backstage performances in our VIP Village.

Explore local food vendors featuring fresh-shucked oysters and Chesapeake-inspired cuisine, sip craft beer, wine, and creative cocktails or mocktails, and browse a marketplace of local artisans. Relax with beach yoga, jump into yard and beach games, or visit educational exhibits and workshops throughout the festival grounds.
