The inaugural Okeechobee Music & Arts Festival will take place March 4 – 6 just outside of Florida’s Lake Okeechobee and is said to be “Florida’s largest camping festival.” Last month organizers revealed the initial lineup for the festival and today have announced a second wave of artists.
Bassnectar, The Avett Brothers, Lettuce and White Denim are among the additions announced today. Odesza, Kill The Noise, Lil Dicky, Nahko and Medicine For The People, Booker T. Jones, Post Malone, Dungen, Family and Friends and The Shelters form the rest of Okeechobee’s second wave.
The acts announced today join previously announced headliners Mumford & Sons, Kendrick Lamar and Skrillex. The extremely diverse lineup also includes Grace Potter, Jason Isbell, Big Gigantic, Portugal. The Man, Dr. Dog, Lotus, Deer Tick, Preservation Hall Jazz Band and more than 40 other acts such as The Soul Rebels, The London Souls and Moon Hooch. One of the more intriguing listings on the lineup, especially considering Okeechobee is put together by the creative team behind Bonnaroo’s SuperJam, is “PoWow! A Superstar Mashup With Special Guests.”
Okeechobee Music & Arts Festival will be held at Florida’s Sunshine Grove, a site that features over 800 acres of pristine grasslands, clear lakes, and exotic tropical woodlands. In addition to the music, festival attractions are expected to include a white-sand lakeside-swimming beach and bar, wooded VIP camping areas, an assortment of immersive art installations and a wide array of locally sourced treats from some of Florida’s most popular food trucks, craft beer makers and artisanal purveyors. The festival will be presented by Soundslinger, LLC, a team of concert promoters and producers with credits that include helping to launch and promote Bonnaroo, Outside Lands and China’s STORM Electronic Music Festival.
3-Day GA passes are currently on sale via Okeechobeefest.com. These passes include parking, tent camping and access to all three days of the festival. Extensive VIP options are also available. Look for more lineup announcements soon
