BRIGHTSIDE Music Festival Debuts in Orlando This Spring

The inaugural BRIGHTSIDE Music Festival will take place at Central Florida Fairgrounds in Orlando on Saturday, April 27, 2024. The festival, organized by Brew Ha Ha Productions, will feature Sublime as its headlining act. Original Sublime singer Bradley Nowell’s son, Jakob, fronts the band with original members Bud Gaugh and Eric Wilson. This performance is happening one week after the band’s Coachella debut with this lineup. 311, Goldfinger, Story of the Year, Face to Face Save Ferris, Unwritten Law, and Zebrahead and more will also play.

“This is one of those events you just get that feeling, something special is about to happen,” said Cameron Collins of Brew Ha Ha. “The stars aligned perfectly on this festival and I’m absolutely stoked to be doing this with Sublime, 311, Goldfinger and the whole lineup in Orlando, Florida. The energy from the crowd singing along to every word at this one is going to be electrifying! This is an exciting time for Brew Ha Ha Productions!”
