Pearl Jam, Eddie Vedder & Friends, Maná and Tyler Childers will headline the 2026 Ohana Festival on Sept. 25 to 27 at Doheny State Beach in Dana Point, celebrating its 10th anniversary.
Other highlights of the lineup include Billy Idol, Alabama Shakes, Jon Batiste, Fontaines D.C., Sugar and Pixies. The festival draws 15,000 to 20,000 attendees per day throughout the weekend. The crowd is multigenerational — far from the social media influencer scene of Coachella — and reflects the Hawaiian concept of family, with many parents and children in attendance. The event highlights themes of beach recreation and environmental conservation, creating a welcoming and community‑focused atmosphere.
Ohana Festival was founded by Pearl Jam frontman Eddie Vedder and the band’s manager Mark Smith. The 2016 festival was a two-day event headlined by Vedder, Lana Del Rey and Elvis Costello. It became a three-day event the following year.

What to know about attending Ohana Festival
Doheny State Beach is a state-owned waterfront venue, nestled in the coastal community of Dana Point in Orange County, surrounded by luxury beachfront properties and upscale mountain homes overlooking the beach.
Shuttle passes for the festival are available each year, but they typically sell out quickly — the same goes for parking passes at the nearby garage. It’s smart to secure both as early as possible. Discussions on Reddit about Ohana Festival parking mention that some attendees choose to park in the nearby Ralphs lot and walk to the festival gates, with some willing to walk over an hour or up to three miles. Others opt for public lots or street parking as close as they can get, often relying on rideshare services despite the higher cost or long wait times at the end of the night.
