The Hangout Music Festival returns to Gulf Shores next month, so if you’ve been waiting for reason to take a road trip, this is it.

There’s a new stage, some eye-catching production upgrades, and even extra shade to help you keep your cool, so take a look at what to expect during this year’s festival.

What’s New for 2024?

The music festival features a new stage this year—the Shoreline stage. Situated between the Hangout and Boom on the Beach stages, the Shoreline is wide open to present a photogenic view of Gulf waters in the background. This is where you can catch acts like Koe Wetzel, NLE Choppa, Qveen Herby, and more.

If it’s a party you’re looking for, you’ll find it at the Boom on the Beach stage, now with more LED and laser lights! This year, the Boom stage has migrated from streetside to surfside, and it will feature acts like Subtronics, The Chainsmokers, Sexxy Red, and others. Near the stage, you can also stop by the shaded Nosh Pit for a bite to eat.

Hangout 2024 Passes

The music fest offers a few new pass options for 2024, like the GA Plus, which opens up access to the GA Plus lounge. The lounge features a bar, permanent restrooms, and lockers. There’s also shade and seating when you need to take a breather, as well as jungle gym if you want to keep moving.

The VIP pass offers access to the Hangout VIP Grove amenities, including jewelry, coffee, and IV treatments. Opt for the Super VIP pass and you’ll have up-front access at the Hangout and Boom stages.
