Breakaway Music Festival presented by CELSIUS is thrilled to announce the ineup for the debut of Breakaway Arizona featuring headliners The Chainsmokers, GRYFFIN, Sofi Tukker (DJ Set) and Two Friends.
Earlier this year, Breakaway Music Festival announced its expansion into six new markets. These exciting additions include Dallas, Phoenix, Atlanta, Philadelphia, Huntsville, and a soon-to-be-announced location in Northern California. This strategic move highlights the festival’s growth and commitment to reaching new audiences across the United States. By entering these vibrant markets, Breakaway aims to engage music lovers eager for unique festival experiences.
The expansion will increase the total number of Breakaway festivals to twelve in 2025. This growth represents a mission to connect communities through the power of music. Each festival creates an immersive environment where attendees can enjoy performances and foster camaraderie with fellow music lovers.
As a result of this expansion, Breakaway has built a reputation as the fastest-growing independent music brand. The festival sells hundreds of thousands of tickets annually, demonstrating its popularity and the strong demand for its unique offerings. This rapid growth stems from a dedication to curating exceptional lineups. Breakaway features both renowned artists and emerging talent, which creates an inclusive atmosphere for all music enthusiasts.
In addition to the impressive lineup, Breakaway festivals prioritize community engagement and local talent. Each event showcases a mix of national touring acts and local performers. This approach ensures that regional artists have a platform to shine. Attendees appreciate the opportunity to discover new artists alongside established names.
For instance, Breakaway Arizona will feature performances by sixteen national touring acts and three local DJs. These acts will perform over two electrifying nights at Sloan Park Festival Grounds on April 18-19, 2025. Attendees can look forward to seeing artists such as Audien, Coco & Breezy, Cyclops, Daniel Allan, Frank Walker, and more. This diverse lineup reflects the festival’s commitment to showcasing a variety of musical genres, catering to many tastes.
Moreover, the festival experience goes beyond just music. Breakaway enhances the overall atmosphere with engaging activities and brand activations. For example, a silent disco featuring local artists allows attendees to dance to their favorite tracks. This unique twist on the traditional festival setup entertains and shows the festival’s dedication to promoting local talent.
In partnership with Relentless Beats, Breakaway Arizona will create a festival that resonates with the local community. Relentless Beats VP of Growth Strategy, Stephen Kushnir, expresses excitement about this collaboration. He states, “We are excited to welcome Breakaway Festival to Arizona and to be part of their first event here. Our two like-minded brands complement each other well, and fans can expect a fantastic event.”
Furthermore, Breakaway commits to innovation in the festival space. The festival will accept cryptocurrency as payment in 2025. This initiative reflects changing payment options and aims to attract a tech-savvy audience that values convenience and modernity in their festival-going experience.
The 2025 season will kick off with Breakaway Dallas (April 4-5), followed by Breakaway Phoenix (April 18-19). After Phoenix, the festival series will continue to Tampa (April 25-26), Atlanta (May 16-17), Columbus (May 30-31), Minneapolis/Saint Paul (June 6-7), Grand Rapids (August 15-16), Worcester for Breakaway Mass (September 5-6), Philadelphia (September 12-13), Charlotte (September 26-27), Huntsville (October 3-4), and conclude with Breakaway NorCal (October 17-18). Each location will offer its unique flavor, reflecting local culture while maintaining the core values of the Breakaway brand.
Breakaway into new markets signifies a growing community of music lovers united by their passion for live performances. With a diverse lineup, strong local talent support, and innovative experiences, Breakaway is set to make a lasting impact in the festival scene.
