Set across six indoor and outdoor stages, the festival delivers a diverse lineup: pop, rock, blues, funk, soul, with live bands and DJs, street theatre, and culinary delights from food trucks. With programming for all ages and a special “Talent on Stage” showcase, it unites the community in a vibrant celebration of music and culture, all by the seaside.
