The beloved Florida independent music festival’s first gathering in three years takes place March 19-22, 2026, as always in the magical South Florida nature paradise of Sunshine Grove.

Tickets for Okeechobee Music & Arts Festival 2026 are on sale now. Ticket options include 4-Day General Admission, 4-Day GA+, and 4-Day VIP, along with a variety of camping, VIP glamping, parking packages and culinary experiences. Payment plans are available for all ticket types, camping passes, and add-ons for a 25% deposit. For complete ticket information, please see www.okeechobeefest.com/tickets.

Founded in 2016 with a mandate of authenticity, kindness, and respect between each other and the environment we inhabit, Okeechobee Music & Arts Festival 2026 will once again celebrate the spirit of music, arts, and community with epic live performances and Only-at-Okeechobee immersive experiences unlike those found at any other festival. The upcoming OMF 2026 will feature headline performances from The Lumineers, GRiZ (performing two sets, including a sure-to-be-unforgettable “Chasing The Golden Hour Set”), T-Pain, and Fisher, with additional headliners to be unveiled soon.

Further highlights will include performances from Alison Wonderland, Big Gigantic, Big Wild, BigXthaPlug, BLAAP, Flipturn, Ganja White Night, Goth Babe, Gramatik, IAN, LP Giobbi, LSDream (including LSDream presents LIGHTCODE), The Disco Biscuits, Rainbow Kitten Surprise, Tractorbeam, Tycho, Young The Giant, and many more. As noted, many of the artists appearing at OMF 2026 are returning to the festival for their second, third, fourth – and in the case of GRiZ, fifth – appearance at Sunshine Grove, affirming the gathering’s unparalleled legacy of community and tradition. In addition, OMF 2026 will see the return of what has proven one of the festival’s defining moments since its inaugural event in 2016 – the PoWoW!, an all-star jam session pairing unexpected talents for a variety of live mashups filled with creativity and imagination against an epic setting under the stars deep in the heart of Sunshine Grove.

OMF 2026 will keep the music and spirit going all night long with the Jungle 51 Stage, presenting extended sets by internationally known DJs from sundown to sunrise, capturing all the energy of a club but in the beauty and atmosphere of a verdant jungle. During the day, Jungle 51 will morph into a wellness forest where attendees can participate in yoga and other mindful programming or simply lounge around in the shade and enjoy the tropical surroundings. Many other “Only at Okeechobee” experiences will be on hand throughout Sunshine Grove, offering enrichment and exclusive happenings that are intrinsically connected to the surrounding ecosystem, from the immersive Chobewobee Village – melding captivating art installations and interactive activities with surprise performances and more – to the Farmers Market, where festivalgoers can buy fresh local produce, food, drinks and more from some of Okeechobee’s lovely neighbors. A new range of elevated dining experiences will also be available, including the Speakeasy Experience: Champagne Problems (open to all ticket types), VIP Dining Experience: The Grove Table, and VIP Dining Experience: Argentine BBQ Supper Club. More details on the world of OMF can be found at www.okeechobeefest.com/experience.

To mark the gathering’s milestone 10-year reunion, OMF has partnered with British artist Nigel Waymouth, whose visionary poster designs defined the psychedelic era, to create an original artwork for the 2026 event. Known for co-producing iconic posters that helped define the aesthetic of the psychedelic era, the new piece for Okeechobee Music & Arts Festival 2026 sees Waymouth returning to poster art for the first time in decades, continuing his lifelong celebration of peace, love, and life in color. An exclusive behind-the-scenes mini-documentary detailing the screen-printing process of the OMF 2026 poster art, as well as Waymouth’s storied past as an artist and historic ties to music and popular culture, is streaming now on YouTube.

“Okee reminded me of something: not the scene, but the spirit,” says Nigel Waymouth. “I felt it was time for a little revival, to show the next generation what their forefathers have produced. With this piece and all of my art, I hope to remind everyone to always give peace a chance!”
