Updated November 9, 2026. Dates come from the organizers and are checked against their official pages. Always confirm with the organizer before you travel.

BeachLife is the closest thing the West Coast has to a yacht rock festival with a real budget. It is a three-day waterfront festival in Redondo Beach’s King Harbor area that mixes classic rock, soft rock, reggae and surf rock, and it books the kind of legacy acts our listeners actually play. The 2026 edition (the seventh) ran May 1 to 3 and was headlined by Duran Duran, The Chainsmokers, The Offspring, Ben Harper, Joan Jett, Sheryl Crow, My Morning Jacket and James Taylor & His All-Star Band.

Why yacht rock fans go

James Taylor closing a Sunday night by the ocean is about as yacht rock as a modern festival gets. BeachLife also has boat-based Admiral passes for people who want to arrive by water.

Plan your visit

  • Single-day tickets usually sell out first for the night with the biggest classic act, so buy that day early.
  • Parking near the harbor is tight. Plan on rideshare or the festival’s shuttle options listed closer to the date.
