Sacramento is turning up the volume with the inaugural Breakaway Music Festival, and the city hasn’t looked this alive since… well, probably ever! After three solid years ruling the dance floors of San Francisco, the festival has made its way to Cal Expo, bringing along a lineup of electrifying performances that will keep the crowd buzzing. Day one was headlined by EDM legends Tiesto and Elderbrook, while day two promises to keep the energy high with Martin Garrix and Louis the Child set to take the stage. Can someone say “dance party?”
Attendees are thrilled about this new direction for Sacramento, with many expressing their joy over the reduced travel time—who wouldn’t want to attend an epic festival just ten minutes from home? People are gathering not only for the beats but for the chance to experience a vibrant atmosphere of positivity and connection. Quotes from festivalgoers reveal a warm sense of community, where everybody feels like family, even if they’re complete strangers. You can practically feel the love (and the bass) in the air!
What’s really cool is how the festival is injecting a fresh sound into the city while giving it a much-needed leisure boost during what used to be the GoldenSky Country Music Festival weekend. With around 20,000 people expected for the two-day party, Sacramento is dancing into a new era of music and celebration. So, who’s ready for round two?
What would it take for you to convince your friends to dance the night away this weekend? Get those tickets while you can—the first taste of EDM in Sacramento is definitely one for the books!
