Suwannee Hulaween: New Stage, Spirit Lake Programming & Silent Disco!

Suwannee Hulaween is set to return to Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park in Live Oak, Florida, October 24-27. This year, attendees will experience a brand new addition: the OFF LIMITS stage, along with the evolving Spirit Lake art programming. And Silent Disco returns late-night — to The AMP!

What is the OFF LIMITS Stage?

The OFF LIMITS stage represents a new immersive experience within the festival’s renowned Spirit Lake area, known for its visual and interactive art installations. Here’s what to expect:

1. 360-degree Stage Setup : The OFF LIMITS stage features a unique 360-degree design, creating an all-encompassing environment where attendees can enjoy performances from multiple angles.

2. Underground Dance Music Focus : This stage will primarily host underground dance music acts, offering a curated lineup for fans of deeper electronic sounds.

3. Enhanced Visual and Fire Effects : OFF LIMITS will include fire effects provided by Incendia and a cutting-edge Funktion-One sound system, heightening the sensory experience.

4. Curated by DEF : The programming is handled by DEF, known for innovative underground dance music events, ensuring top-notch artist selections.

Spirit Lake: Art and Immersion

Spirit Lake has been a focal point of Hulaween, blending music with experiential art. The 2024 edition will continue to push the boundaries, featuring:

Art Installations : Expect new and returning installations that combine lighting, sculpture, and interactive elements to create an otherworldly atmosphere.

Live Performances : Roaming performers, visual artists, and other creatives will bring the space to life, offering spontaneous and scheduled acts throughout the weekend.

Why This Matters

Hulaween’s focus on blending music with immersive art has made it one of the most anticipated multi-genre camping festivals in the U.S. The addition of the OFF LIMITS stage and expanded Spirit Lake programming ensures that 2024 will offer a fresh experience even for returning festival-goers.

Hulaween 2024 offers a fantastic lineup spanning various genres, making it tough to choose just 10 must-see acts. Here are some recommendations:

1. The String Cheese Incident – As the festival hosts, they’ll perform five sets throughout the weekend. Their eclectic blend of jam, bluegrass, and electronic music is a Hulaween staple.
2. The Bobby Weir Incident – Grateful Dead fans shouldn’t miss this two-set special featuring Bob Weir alongside The String Cheese Incident. It’s a unique opportunity to experience a legendary musician at an iconic festival.
3. Sublime with Jakob Nowell – Featuring original members Eric Wilson and Bud Gaugh, along with Bradley Nowell’s son, Jakob, this set promises a nostalgic mix of ska-punk classics.
4. Tipper – Known for his intricate sound design, Tipper’s bass-heavy, downtempo beats are always a highlight for fans of experimental electronic music.
5. Liquid Stranger – If you enjoy deep, genre-blurring bass music, Liquid Stranger will deliver an immersive experience, ideal for Hulaween’s late-night vibes.
6. Chris Lake – As one of the leading house music producers, Chris Lake’s set will likely be a dance-heavy affair, perfect for fans of electronic dance music.
7. CloZee – With her world-bass sound that blends organic and electronic elements, CloZee is known for creating a captivating atmosphere that fits the festival’s magical setting.
8. Tash Sultana – A multi-instrumentalist sensation, Tash Sultana’s live-looping skills and powerful voice will bring a diverse mix of rock, reggae, and soul to the stage.
9. Black Pumas – Their soulful rock music, anchored by Eric Burton’s vocals, is great for those looking for a more classic vibe.
10. Chase & Status – For fans of drum and bass, their high-energy set will add some variety to the lineup, ensuring there’s something for everyone.

These picks cover a range of genres to keep things diverse and exciting throughout the festival!

SILENT DISCO

There is no longer a Campground Stage; those performers have been moved to other stages. That means Silent Disco had to move, too. This is an upgrade — to The AMP. Friday and Saturday night, with two late-night time slots: Dismantla, Cry Havoc, Sub-Lo, Prints, Combustibles, Morganja, and the park’s favorite ambassadors and Silent Disco curators: Vlad the Inhaler and his much better half Booty Boo!

HOUSE OF LOST

While we’re at it, how about House of Lost?
