Chicago, we have a situation—in the best way possible. North Coast Music Festival just announced its Phase 2 lineup, and if Phase 1 had you interested… this one’s about to lock you in.
We’re talking Jazzy, Interplanetary Criminal, Jigitz, JSTJR, LEVEL UP, DJ Dave, 33 Below, SIPPY—stacked, vibey, and ready to take over your end-of-summer plans. But here’s where it really gets spicy…
North Coast is leaning HARD into the heavier side this year. Like, blink-and-you-miss-it BPMs, bass-you-feel-in-your-chest kind of energy. New additions include Alignment, Angerfist, BYRON, Diøn, GRAVEDGR, and Dømina—aka your official invitation to go feral in the crowd.
And as always, they’re not forgetting where they came from. Over 55 Chicago-based DJs are being added across the Firepit, Silent Disco, and Chill Dome stages—so you’re getting that global-meets-local magic all weekend long. It’s giving “discover your new favorite artist at 3 pm and lose your mind by 10 pm.
What makes North Coast stand out year after year is how intentional the experience feels. It’s not just about the lineup—it’s the community, the curated stages, and the unexpected moments that become core memories.
