San Luis Obispo’s premier music, arts, and camping festival, Shabang, returns to California’s stunning Central Coast on May 2nd & 3rd for its biggest edition to date. Its 2025 lineup is an exhilarating amalgamation of in-demand indie, electronic, and alternative acts – headlined by Jungle, Wallows, Goth Babe, Briston Maroney, Kream, and many more.
To keep the party going, Shabang has now announced the details of its official afterparty. The 21+ event will take place on-site at the Dairy Creek Clubhouse, with doors opening at 10 pm. It’s the perfect way to cap off an exhilarating weekend nestled in the Californian Central Coast as the Australian house maestro Odd Mob and a special guest join forces to send off Shabang 2025 in style.
Because of the massive success of adding camping for festival attendees in 2024, Shabang will also provide a wealth of official Camping activities in 2025. Across a wide spectrum of offerings, the Camping Activities will include a Kandi Lab, speed-dating, trivia, yoga, festival pre-parties, the Shabang Olympics, and much more to keep attendees engaged all weekend long.
Additionally, its University Lineup of on-site workshops and events adds an exciting twist to the typical festival experience, as fans can take part in classes such as Energy Alchemy & Sound Therapy, Empower Kickboxing, Freestyle Freedom, For the Love of Juggling, a cacao ceremony, multiple yoga classes, and even the Sacred Art of Ass-Shaking. From billed acts to tons of uniquely interactive workshops and events, Shabang is as immersive a festival as they come.
Shabang has grown from a mere 20-person, DIY college gathering into an annual festival garnering national attention- amassing over 10,000 attendees for its tenth anniversary in 2024. With its 11th year delivering top-tier, multi-genre programming to the Central Coast, Shabang promises something special for every kind of festival-goer. The 2025 edition will run Friday, May 2nd from 3 pm to 11 pm, and Saturday, May 3rd, from 2 pm to 11 pm.
Tickets are still available, with set times being announced on April 21st via the official Shabang app. Guests must be 18+ to attend. GA passes start at $239; VIP passes start at $379. Camping packages are available, with tent sites starting at $165 per person.
