Scheduled for Friday, August 23rd, and Saturday, August 24th, the two-day festival promises an unforgettable experience at The Port in Olympia, Washington. With an eclectic mix of internationally acclaimed acts and rising stars from the South Sound region, SSBP24 is not only a must-attend event for locals but also a lineup worth traveling to- the Main Stage sits on the shores of the Puget Sound.

About the lineup and booking process, Owner and Promoter of the event Christen Greene (she/her/they) expressed, “I’m super happy with this year’s local additions to the stage and it’s our biggest swing to date on headliners. I couldn’t be more thrilled with how it came together. It’s diverse and fun- and really gives a nod to the city and our music culture here.”
In addition to the stellar musical lineup, attendees can look forward to an array of local vendors, food pop-ups, a VIP lounge, games, and more- all set against the picturesque backdrop of the Puget Sound.
