While The Peach Music Festival as fans have known it for more than a decade will take a pause this year, the organizers of the beloved jam festival have announced The Peach at the Beach, a one-day summer event in Atlantic City, NJ on Saturday, July 13th, 2024 catered to the Peach community.
Set to take place at the new Summer Concert Stage at ISLAND Water Park at Showboat Resort, The Peach at the Beach—produced by Live Nation in partnership with The Allman Brothers Band—will feature a full day of music including a two-set performance by Dead-plus live juggernaut/veteran Peach headliner Joe Russo’s Almost Dead (JRAD). Other billed performers include Jersey jam quintet Dogs In A Pile, psych-rock bass queen Karina Rykman, and reggae singer Mykal Rose of Black Uhuru. In addition, the event will honor the Allman Brothers Band roots of The Peach Music Festival by welcoming new-generation tribute ensemble Trouble No More to the beach to perform Eat A Peach in its entirety.
The venue will offer a few familiar features for longtime patrons of The Peach, which typically takes place over four days at Montage Mountain in Scranton, PA. In addition to an artist lineup filled with festival favorites, attendees are invited to enjoy the adjacent ISLAND Water Park, the largest indoor beachfront water park in the world. Covering 120,000 square feet and holding more than 317,000 gallons of water, the waterpark features 11 slides, including the Electric Eel, Sonic Serpent, and Barracuda Blaster tube slides; three Tidal Racers mat racer slides for head-first excitement; and five waterslides suitable for younger visitors at Slide Island. The Peach at the Beach will also host Friday pre-party and Saturday late-night events at the nearby Bourbon Room. Details on the pre-party and late-night will be announced at a later date.
