BeachLife Festival will return to Redondo Beach’s waterfront May 1–3 for its seventh year, once again transforming the South Bay into a three-day celebration of live music, art, food, and coastal culture. BeachLife 2026 features headlining performances from Duran Duran, The Offspring, and James Taylor and His All-Star Band, alongside The Chainsmokers, My Morning Jacket, Slightly Stoopid, Sheryl Crow, Ben Harper & The Innocent Criminals, Joan Jett & The Blackhearts, Grouplove, Peach Pit, and more. Since launching in 2019, the festival has built a reputation for pairing an eclectic lineup with the relaxed, welcoming energy of Southern California’s beachside lifestyle.
Beyond the music, BeachLife 2026 continues to expand its culinary and luxury offerings, including the return of the California Surf Club VIP dining experience overlooking the LowTide stage, led by BeachLife Executive Chef Chase Carlson. The Captain’s Culinary Experience will also return with a rotating daily menu from a featured chef, following last year’s program led by Curtis Stone. Festivalgoers can expect a wide range of food and beverage options across the grounds, from craft beer gardens and cocktail lounges to food trucks and vendors offering vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free selections, alongside art installations, boutique shopping, interactive activations, and sustainability-focused initiatives throughout the weekend.
