MIRAMAR BEACH , FL, UNITED STATES, April 15, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Following a wildly successful and fully sold-out debut, Joe Bonamassa has announced the return of Sound Wave Beach Weekend for 2027, building on the momentum of its first year with an expanded lineup and a renewed focus on collaboration, community, and immersive live music experiences.Fans can sign up now at www.soundwaveweekend.com for special pre-sale access and additional event details.
Set once again along the white sand beaches of Miramar Beach, Florida, Sound Wave Beach Weekend will return as Bonamassa’s signature artist-curated destination event, bringing together a wide-ranging lineup that reflects the full spectrum of modern roots music. The 2027 edition will feature two special shows from Bonamassa, alongside lively performances from Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit, Trombone Shorty & Orleans Avenue, Rival Sons, Los Lonely Boys, The War and Treaty, Robert Randolph Band, The Record Company, Daniel Donato’s Cosmic Country, Bywater Call, and more.
The weekend will also include artist collaborations, unique sit-ins, and one-of-a-kind moments that were a defining part of the inaugural event, along with special experiences like a welcome beach bonfire hosted by Nikki Hill.
The announcement comes just days after the conclusion of Sound Wave’s first year, which saw fans from across the country gather for a three-day experience that blended live music with a relaxed, beachside setting. The event sold out immediately during pre-sale and quickly established itself as a new destination within the festival landscape, drawing praise for its intimate scale, incredible curated lineup, and emphasis on guest customer experience.
Hosted in partnership with Topeka, Sound Wave Beach Weekend is designed to offer a different kind of festival experience – one that prioritizes ease, connection, and proximity. The newly renovated 6,000-capacity venue sits just steps from the beach and nearby accommodations, allowing fans to move seamlessly between daytime relaxation and nighttime performances. Each guest enjoys a reserved “cove,” with food, drinks, and merchandise delivered on demand, creating an environment where the focus stays squarely on the music.
In addition, the full renovations recently made to the venue include building a lower bowl and upper lawn section that provide amazing sightlines to the stage for all guests, plus enlarged video screens, 30+ premium suites in the center of the venue, a shaded artisan village, food court and secondary stage.
Guests' reviews are flooding in that their Beach Weekend experience is among the best they have ever attended. The combination of passionate hospitality and organization from the Topeka team along with the venue layout and amenities set the stage for guests to have a music experience truly like no other.

For Bonamassa, the event represents a natural extension of his long-standing commitment to building platforms for artists and creating meaningful experiences for fans. With artists spanning Americana, Blues, Rock, Soul, Roots and Jam-adjacent worlds, the lineup reflects a shared value of incredible live performances and musical camaraderie. From the storytelling depth of Jason Isbell And The 400 Unit, to the high-energy brass of Trombone Shorty, the heavy Blues Rock resurgence of Rival Sons, and the genre-blurring guitar mastery of Daniel Donato’s Cosmic Country and so much more, the weekend is positioned as a reconnection for artists who thrive in a live setting.
