Ocean Way Festival Roots in Santa Monica | Venice Beach News

Ocean Way Festival is set to hit Santa Monica’s beachfront this September, born from a street sign inspiration and rooted in the legacy of Oceanway Recording Studio. Originally a one-day event for 35K, it’s now expanding to two days with a teased lineup featuring Khruangbin. More than just music, the festival blends local flavor — from restaurants and designers to high school days and beach cleanups — aiming for an authentic Santa Monica vibe. Sustainability is key: solar-powered stages, waste reduction partnerships, and local vendor hiring. This isn’t just another festival — it’s a community-driven vision designed to reflect and uplift the city’s soul.
