SUNFEST 2023 IN OCEAN CITY MD

Labor Day may mark the end of summer in some places, but Sunfest marks the transition to Fall in Ocean City, Maryland. In Ocean City, summer is a state of mind that can’t be located on a calendar or constrained to certain months. In fact, the pursuit of endless summer is a major reason why Ocean City waits until October to hold it’s biggest, most popular festival of the year – Sunfest.

SUNFEST IS OCTOBER 19-22, 2023
THURSDAY – SATURDAY: 10 A.M. – 7 P.M.
SUNDAY: 10 A.M. – 6 P.M.

There will be 4 days of FREE music.

With 2 stages for live music, there will be over 20 groups performing during Sunfest, and many different styles of music to listen and dance to including rock, R&B, country, and fusion!   All performances are free. Check out the full music line up here.
