The BeachLife Festival is a Southern California Music Festival held annually at a waterfront venue in Redondo Beach. The festival celebrates music, art, and beach culture. The inaugural event was in 2019 with headliners like Willie Nelson, Brian Wilson, Jason Mraz, Violent Femmes, and Slightly Stoopid. Over the course of the festival’s evolution, many popular musical acts have taken the stage including Ziggy Marley, Counting Crows, Fitz & The Tantrums, Jane’s Addiction, Silversun Pickups, Weezer, Smashing Pumpkins, The Black Keys, Airborne Toxic Event, and Gwen Stefani.
BeachLife Festival features four stages with musical acts performing throughout the duration of the event. The two main stages will feature the major headlining acts. Over the course of the 3-day event, more than 50 bands and musicians will perform.
The BeachLife Festival added a second event in September 2022, The BeachLife Ranch Festival, located at the same venue. This event repeated the following year, with plans to continue annually. The BeachLife Ranch Festival, like its predecessor, celebrates music, art, and beach culture, but has a cowboy surfer flair, with the bands leaning towards popular country musicians. Headliners here have included Brandi Carlisle, Dierks Bentley, Waylon Jennings, The Lumineers, Wilco, Brad Paisley, The Doobie Brothers, Cody Jinks, and Jack Johnson. This event also features some of California’s best cuisine including Santa Maria style BBQ.
