BeachLife Festival, Southern California’s premier live music, art, and culinary event, is set to return to Redondo Beach’s scenic waterfront May 1st – 3rd 2026 for its seventh year. The weekend celebration will once again bring together welcoming coastal vibes, an eclectic mix of legendary and emerging music talent, inspired culinary offerings and luxury experiences to the heart of the South Bay. BeachLife 2026 will feature headlining sets from DURAN DURAN, THE OFFSPRING, JAMES TAYLOR AND HIS ALL-STAR BAND, as well as THE CHAINSMOKERS, MY MORNING JACKET, SLIGHTLY STOOPID, SHERYL CROW, BEN HARPER & THE INNOCENT CRIMINALS, JOAN JETT & THE BLACKHEARTS, GROUPLOVE, PEACH PIT and many more.
BeachLife’s grateful for the opportunity to continue curating music, food, and lifestyle experiences that celebrate the beach culture of Southern California. This year’s lineup is once again highlighted by a special collection of artists and bands who’ve helped shape the soundtrack of our California lifestyle…from its early days to today – Allen Sanford – festival founder
Since launching in 2019, BeachLife has established a reputation for combining the best of Southern California’s idyllic culture into a one-of-a-kind experience with something for everyone. Beyond the incredible live music, the festival also features wide-ranging food and drink offerings from acclaimed chefs, art installations and onsite activations highlighting various brand-focused fan engagements, giveaways, photo moments, and sustainable initiatives, as well as boutique shopping, games and interactive experiences. BeachLife 2025 delivered electrifying performances for over 35,000 attendees from headliners Lenny Kravitz, Sublime and Alanis Morissette, as well as Train, O.A.R., Pretenders, CAKE, Mt. Joy, Jackson Browne, The Beach Boys (featuring special guest John Stamos) among an eclectic group of top talent spanning rock, indie, pop, jam, reggae and more.
In addition to the stunning coastal views and a stellar lineup of musical acts, BeachLife understands no festival experience is complete without only the best food and beverage offerings. After making its debut at last year’s festival, the newly opened California Surf Club will once again open the doors to club members and a select BeachLife 2026 attendees. BeachLife Executive Chef Chase Carlson will oversee this exclusive VIP dining experience where non-member VIP, Captain, and Captain Plus festival attendees will indulge in artfully prepared gourmet cuisine, handcrafted cocktails, and personalized service within a private, laid-back, luxury-meets-surf atmosphere overlooking the LowTide stage and Redondo Beach coast. Additionally, the Captain’s Culinary Experience, hosted in the Captain’s Bungalow lounge, will showcase cuisine from an acclaimed chef (to be announced soon), featuring a unique and diverse menu each day of the festival, all with a spacious view overlooking the HighTide stage. Last year’s Captain’s Culinary Experience was led by world-renowned Chef Curtis Stone.
