Californian festival Cali Vibes Festival returns for its fourth year, and this time, it’s making waves in early summer. Set for June 7-8, 2025, at Marina Green Park in Long Beach, CA, the festival promises a sun-soaked weekend of reggae, hip-hop, ska, and beachside vibes. Organized by Goldenvoice, Cali Vibes has built a reputation for blending California lifestyle, good energy, and world-class music, and this year’s lineup is no exception.
Headlining the 2025 edition is Kid Cudi, along with reggae rock powerhouses Stick Figure, Slightly Stoopid, Dirty Heads, Rebelution, and Iration. Hip-hop legends Cypress Hill will perform their classic Black Sunday album while Ludacris brings his unmistakable energy to the stage. Steel Pulse, Collie Buddz, J Boog, and YG Marley—the grandson of Bob Marley—are also set to perform, alongside a mix of reggae, hip-hop, and punk-infused acts like The Elovaters, Rome, DENM, and Shwayze.
Notably, Blvck H3ro appears to be the only Jamaican artist on this year’s lineup, carrying the torch for reggae’s birthplace on a bill dominated by U.S.-based reggae fusion acts. Is this again a possible sign of Jamaica’s loosening grip on the reggae space? A discussion that has been going on for a while now on the island.
This year’s edition is special, marking Stick Figure’s only Southern California performance in 2025, and Slightly Stoopid’s set will feature surprise guests for a family reunion-style jam session. Fans will also witness Rome (formerly of Sublime with Rome) launching his solo career in his hometown, while Landon McNamara, a big-wave surfing champion, brings his island vibes to the stage.
As Cali Vibes continues to evolve, Goldenvoice Talent Buyer Gaston Leone shares that the goal remains the same: “crafting a lineup that reflects this scene’s evolution while staying true to its essence, set against the stunning backdrop of Long Beach.”
