Soak Up the Music with a Curated List of the Hottest Bands at Hangout Fest 2018 In May 2018 the city of Gulf Shores, Alabama will be taken over by music connoisseurs from all over the country. We love the festival so much that I wanted to share three amazing acts that they booked to perform. The first video has an interesting message up on the screen before the song starts. During my last concert, I was noticing the lack of thought being put into the banter, also known as the conversation the musicians share with the audience in between

Additional Acts Set to Perform: ZEDD, The Killers, Halsey, The Chainsmokers, and Over 60 Acts Goldenvoice and the Hangout Music Festival have announced dozens of live acts set to perform in Gulf Shores, Alabama from May 18-20. The social media response is the same as the past two years with diehard alumni taking verbal jabs at the lineup. After covering the event from 2013-2016, I can say that the lineup undercard does lack name recognition. The festival broke out 7-10 big names, and left the smaller acts to fend for themselves with smaller advertising budgets to gain exposure. The headliners

The 2017 Hangout Music Festival has officially sold out of tickets via their box office, but weekend passes are still available to purchase. StubHub has one of the largest markets for reselling tickets. I do not support reselling tickets, but in this case, the tickets are close to the same value that they were being sold via the main box office. The shuttle passes on another hand are priced way too high on the secondary market. Scan over options for 3 Day General Admission Passes via StubHub. The festival recently replaced the cancellation of Frank Ocean with Phoenix. It

The Hangout Music Festival makes Weekend at Bernie's look like a weekend at a regular beach, with no music. The film Weekend at Bernie's was released in 1983, and some of the people reading this article were probably not old enough to watch the film to get that first joke, but for those that had cable in the '80s, it was one of the only films on television. It was the Justin Bieber of entertainment. Hangout Fest 2016 crowd. Photo by: Matthew McGuire In 2016 at Hangout Fest, I made several jokes referring to that old film, and didn't get it

Florence + The Machine closed down the Hangout Stage in grand fashion. Her set started early at 9:25 p.m. After four days of intense music, the festival celebrated their seventh year with fireworks and historic music on stage. Run the Jewels performed on the Surf Stage to a large audience. Their set was hardcore hip-hop that had political and intelligent storytelling. The crowd overall was the most energetic groups I have ever seen. On multiple occasions, I noticed groups of girls running for stage to stage. It takes real dedication to run to different stages. The next generation definitely

Saturday’s weather provided clear, sunny skies and energetic people from all over the country and globe to party at Hangout Fest. We arrived to the beach to catch Portugal. The Man performing on the Hangout Stage. We ate some food, and ventured over to Camp Hangout. It was a recreational area for people of all ages to interact with kickball, a fire pit, water guns and relaxing shade during the early hours of the day. I can’t remember the last time I played kickball, and being 31-years-old, I felt like a kid again at bat. I did fail to
