After one of the more memorable first year’s in recent festival history that included selling out, organizers of the Okeechobee Music & Arts Festival have announced the event will return in 2017. Next year’s installment of the event will take place March 2 – 5, 2017 in Okeechobee, Florida.

Okeechobee ’16 featured a diverse lineup that included such acts as Ween, Mumford & Sons, Skrillex, Robert Plant, Hall & Oates, The Avett Brothers, Big Gigantic, Preservation Hall Jazz Band, Fetty Wap, Jason Isbell, Grace Potter and Big Grams. Chief Creative Officer and co-Founder Paul Peck said, “There were so many once-in-a-lifetime moments at Okeechobee ’16. In 2017, we’re going to build upon the magic we created last year by adding new, next level surprises. Those special, shared experiences that will never happen again is what Okeechobee is all about.”

A limited pre-sale will take place tomorrow, August 17 at 11 a.m. ET via the event’s website.
