Further lineup announcements will be made soon.

Besides the music, there will be a holistic village with services such as acupuncture, massages, and yoga, as well as nutritionists and life coaches. They will also have body painting and a drum circle on the beach.

Although 9 Mile Music Festival is an adult festival, children under 10 enter free as long as they are escorted by a guardian.

Expect a day full of music, many different cultures, foods and drinks: from Jamaican jerk chicken and other popular Jamaican dishes to Latin food, arepas, pizza, Chinese food, fresh salads and vegetarian food.

To keep up the tradition, a donation of 4 canned goods is still required for entry. This practice has been going on since the very first edition of 9 Mile Festival 24 years ago, and all goods are contributed to charity.

This year the 9 Mile Music Festival will support Kurlys House & Food for Life.
