No need to hold a seashell up to your ear.
Ocean’s Calling will provide all the seaside sound you could ever need at this year’s festival on Sept. 26-28 at the Ocean City Inlet.
Headliners scheduled to lend their talents to the proceedings include punk pioneers Green Day, rising folk hero Noah Kahan, emo icons Fall Out Boy, hitmakers Weezer and indie vets Vampire Weekend.
They’ll be joined by Lenny Kravitz, DEVO, Good Charlotte, Nelly and Cake.
In an interesting twist, a number of ’90s acts that typically don’t make the rounds as often as the aforementioned acts — like En Vogue, Spin Doctors, The Black Crowes, DJ Jazzy Jeff, 4 Non Blondes, Collective Soul, Blind Melon and Marcy Playground — will also be at the 2025 Oceans Calling.
We’d be remiss if we didn’t mention Fountains of Wayne, Franz Ferdinand, Wheatus, The Fray and Michelle Branch, too.
As always, O.A.R. curates the mixed genre festivities. This year, they invited 40 acts (including themselves) to ring in the fall over the long weekend.
“American Pie” actor Jason Biggs handles “hosting duties” and acclaimed chefs Robert Irvine, Anne Burrell and Michael and Brian Voltaggio will also be on the premises.
If you’d like to attend, single and multi-day Ocean’s Calling passes are available on sites like Vivid Seats; the official on-sale is Friday, Feb. 14.
Vivid Seats is a secondary market ticketing platform, and prices may be higher or lower than face value, depending on demand.
