This inaugural event, curated by Morgan Wallen, took place May 16-18, 2025, as a one-year “takeover” of the Hangout Music Festival, using the same beachside site and infrastructure. It sold out in 90 minutes, drawing 40,000 attendees daily and generating significant economic impact (estimated $60 million based on prior Hangout Fest figures). The festival was deemed a success, with fewer arrests (37) compared to the 2024 Hangout Fest (94).
