6 chill US music festivals that are worth traveling for this summer
18.05.2024 - 13:39 / lonelyplanet.com
If you're the sort of music fan who is happier watching the Coachella livestream on your couch than navigating the crowds, then you may be wondering how to enjoy the magic of live music without quite so many people.
Although behemoth music festivals can deliver marquee moments, it can be easy to get lost in their sheer size. Often, the best music experiences happen in intimate settings or unique locations – and the US has these in abundance.
If you’re looking to plan a festival trip that will take you away from the chaos, here are some chill music festivals all over the USA.
May 17–19, 2024
Attendance: 40,000
Although Hangout comes in toward the larger side, the beachside oasis offers a late-spring-break vibe that can’t be overlooked. May in Alabama’s Gulf Shores usually brings temperate weather conditions and an unmatched setting for relaxing — and hearing some great music.
Let your feet sink into the sand while taking in the scene and playing a pickup volleyball match. You can overlook the entire site from the Ferris wheel or while paragliding along the water. The poolside hang at the main stage requires a VIP ticket, while the Thursday-night kickoff party usually features some of the weekend’s biggest upcoming acts performing special preview sets.
What's the lineup? Headliners for 2024 include Lana Del Rey, Odesza and Zach Bryan, along with performances from the Chainsmokers, NLE Choppa and Reneé Rapp among many others performing across five stages.
June 20–23, 2024
Attendance: 40,000 campers
Every year, around 40,000 like-minded humans known as the “Forest Family” gather among the trees of Sherwood Forest in Rothbury, Michigan, to bask in the charged glow of Electric Forest.
This ethereal woodsy gathering promises an immersive experience: fans can suggest art activations, projects and collaborations during the festival. The Wish Machine allows attendees to earn their pass by doing charitable deeds. There’s even an official sticker design contest.
What's the lineup? Headliners include Everything Always: Dom Dolla and John Summit, Pretty Lights, Subtronics and Excision with “*2 incidents*” from the String Cheese Incident. Away from the stages, there are art installations, a silent disco and yoga classes.
June 20–23, 2024
Attendance: 50,000
