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/
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!”

Lila Nikole and Platinum FUBU Bring the Amazonia Experience to Miami Swim Week
Miami Swim Week is about to get even more immersive. On Sunday, May 31 at 2:00 PM, designer Lila Nikole will present The Golden Standard: Amazonia Experience at Tequila Town in Miami, debuting a new collaboration with Platinum FUBU during one of fashion’s biggest weekends in South Florida.
May 15, 2026
Inspired by the richness and mystique of the Brazilian rainforest, the presentation moves beyond the traditional runway format and into a cinematic, multi sensory experience where fashion, storytelling, music, and visual artistry come together in one space.
Known for her bold and culture driven design aesthetic, Lila Nikole transforms the venue into what organizers describe as a living narrative filled with character led moments and immersive visual storytelling. The event will also introduce a limited edition Lila Nikole x Platinum FUBU collection, marking a new chapter for both brands.
“This collaboration is incredibly personal for me,” says Lila Nikole. “Growing up in Queens, FUBU was more than a brand, it was a cultural force that shaped my earliest connection to fashion and identity. To now partner with a label that played such a pivotal role in my journey feels truly full circle.”

The collection reimagines Platinum FUBU’s iconic legacy through Lila Nikole’s creative lens, blending the brand’s signature identity with a modern, luxury focused perspective.
The event also coincides with the continued expansion of Platinum FUBU, the designer driven evolution of the iconic label known for its premium materials and fashion forward silhouettes.
Adding to the atmosphere, Miami based cultural partner Miamibloco will feature Bateria Saideira, described as the largest Rio style samba percussion orchestra in the United States. Music throughout the experience will also include sounds by DJ Dinero and DJ Trauma.
Rather than separating guests from the presentation, the experience is intentionally designed to feel intimate and barrier free. Attendees will move throughout the space while engaging directly with the craftsmanship, textures, and details that define both Lila Nikole’s aesthetic and Platinum FUBU’s luxury direction.

Event Details
What: The Golden Standard: Amazonia Experience by Lila Nikole in collaboration with Platinum FUBU
When: Sunday, May 31, 2026 at 2:00 PM
Where: Tequila Town, 4710 NW 37th Ave, Miami, FL 33142

Palace Bar Is the Pulse of Miami Beach Pride 2026
Set across from the restored rainbow crosswalk, this Ocean Drive favorite is once again becoming the heart of Miami Beach Pride.
April 8, 2026
As Miami Beach Pride 2026 returns to Ocean Drive this April, Palace Bar Miami Beach is once again set to be one of the biggest centers of the celebration. Known for its drag shows, open-air dining, and longtime place in South Florida’s LGBTQ+ community, Palace will host a full schedule of Pride Week events while standing directly across from one of the most meaningful new symbols of the weekend: the restored rainbow crosswalk in Miami Beach.
On Friday, April 10, the City of Miami Beach will unveil the rebuilt LGBTQIA+ rainbow crosswalk in Lummus Park, just steps from the Palace on Ocean Drive. The installation was recreated using 3,606 salvaged pavers from the original 2009 crosswalk, giving the city a renewed and permanent symbol of LGBTQ+ visibility, unity, and pride. Its location across from the Palace makes the venue a natural backdrop for one of the most talked-about moments of Miami Beach Pride 2026.
That visibility is nothing new for Palace. Owned by Tom Donall, a co-founder of Miami Beach Pride, Palace has spent nearly four decades building its reputation as one of the most iconic LGBTQ+ venues in Miami Beach. For locals and visitors alike, it has become a go-to destination for drag entertainment, brunch, nightlife, and community on Ocean Drive.
This year’s Palace Bar Miami Beach Pride lineup runs from April 8 through April 12 and includes some of the week’s biggest events. The schedule features the Miami Beach Pride Pageant on April 8, the Haus of Gucci Ball on April 10, and a full weekend of brunches, rooftop events, performances, and DJ sets from Oscar Velasquez and Jrny. Pride weekend will close on Sunday, April 12, with a major final celebration featuring DJ Dani Brasil and appearances by RuPaul’s Drag Race stars Jimbo and Trinity the Tuck.
With the return of the rainbow crosswalk and a major lineup of performances and events, Palace is positioned to be one of the defining destinations of Miami Beach Pride 2026. The venue continues to bring together nightlife, performance, and LGBTQ+ culture in a way that feels both celebratory and deeply rooted in Miami Beach’s history.
