Southern California’s premier live music, art & culinary event returns to Redondo Beach in May
BeachLife Festival returns for its sixth year taking over Redondo Beach’s picturesque waterfront May 2-4, 2025. Those who have attended previous years know the festival delivers a high-end experience and memorable performances from an eclectic group of legendary top talent and exciting inspired emerging artists spanning rock, indie, pop, jam, reggae and more. BeachLife 2025 will feature headlining sets from Lenny Kravitz, Sublime, and Alanis Morissette, as well as Train, O.A.R., Pretenders, Cake, Mt. Joy, Jackson Browne, The Beach Boys and many more.
Since launching in 2019, the festival has quickly established a reputation for combining the best of Southern California’s idyllic culture into a one-of-a-kind immersive experience with something for everyone. Beyond the incredible live music, the festival also features wide-ranging food and drink offerings from acclaimed chefs, art installations and onsite activations highlighting various brand-led interactive experiences, fan engagements and philanthropic, sustainable initiatives.
The festival will also serve as an introduction to the California Surf Club—a first-of-its-kind fine-dining and full-service membership club located on the festival grounds. Opening this February 2025, the Surf Club will welcome its year-round members and the BeachLife Festival 2025 attendees. California Surf Club guests will enjoy gourmet cuisine, handcrafted cocktails, and personalized service, all within a private, comfortable setting that overlooks a main stage and Redondo Beach’s coast.
A new ticket experience is being offered with Captain’s Plus which will provide exclusive non-member access to a more intimate setting, including an opportunity to dine at the VIP restaurant onsite with an elevated culinary experience by award-winning chefs.
The California Surf Club is a 21,000-square-foot coastal compound located on the Redondo Waterfront, designed and constructed to provide a Home for the community to come as they are and focus on good company, good conversation, good vibes, and good views. The California Surf Club comprises two buildings–one serving as a public-facing restaurant/bar and the other a membership-based club, inclusive to all –connected by a beautiful sunset deck and garden. It’s a communal place to meet, network, and connect with like-minded individuals, experience exceptional food and drink, and take part in a social calendar that will be announced soon featuring fitness classes, master class discussions, intimate music listening events and more.
In addition to the exclusive California Surf Club restaurant dining experience, BeachLife will offer various food and beverage options including multiple bars, lounges, food vendors, and food trucks across the venue with vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options available, accessible to all festival goers.
The festival grounds will also host art installations, onsite activations highlighting various brand-focused fan engagements, giveaways, photo moments, and sustainable initiatives as well as boutique shopping, games and interactive experiences. BeachLife is thrilled to be partnering with such brands including Kona Big Wave, Tito’s Handmade Vodka, Jack Daniel’s, Tequila Herradura, DAOU, Ikon Pass and St Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
Philanthropy and community are ever important to BeachLife. Throughout the year and leading up to the annual festival event, BeachLife supports many organizations in Southern California’s South Bay community and beyond, specifically as they relate to the preservation of beaches and oceans. With the help of the LA Kings Care Foundation and several national and local nonprofit organizations, BeachLife will host a Silent Auction to drive awareness to and help raise much-needed funding for these important causes. Philanthropic partners for 2025 include Heal the Bay, Surfrider Foundation, Redondo Beach Education Fund, Wyland Foundation and Redondo Beach Police Foundation.
