DeLUNA FEST ANNOUNCES 2011 FESTIVAL DATES
A Revolutionary Music Festival Experience is Born.
DeLuna Fest 2011 is upping the festival ante exponentially in its sophomore year to bring a unique music event to Pensacola’s Gulf Coast. An expanded and enhanced festival site will make DeLuna Fest the only major RESORT destination music festival on the North American festival circuit.
Five Flags Tourism Group has partnered with Innisfree Hotel Group to move the festival footprint to Innisfree’s three Gulf Front resort hotels. This move will not only double the beachfront footage and viewing area for the two main stages but also incorporate 662 hotel rooms and suites into the festival site. Each of the hotel properties feature pool decks and outdoor activity spaces for General Admission ticketholders. Festival attendees will be given the opportunity to purchase VIP ticket/hotel packages that include on-site lodging in beachfront hotels with balconies overlooking performance stages. DeLuna Fest’s two main stages will remain on the sugar-white sand of Pensacola Beach, but the new festival site will incorporate four additional stages for a total of six. DeLuna Fest will be headlined by national rock acts, with main stage programming of indie rock favorites and major label developing artists, and strong support of our regional Southern Rock superstars. To highlight the Gulf Coast’s strong jazz and blues community, a jazz/blues tent will be added, and in response to popular demand an electronic club experience will be added indoors after the main stage performances each evening.
DeLuna Fest was able to bring an economic boost to the oil-spill ravaged Gulf Coast in 2010, and is looking forward to stronger national support of our festival in 2011 through major label partnership, a redesigned digital fan experience, and addition of sponsored attendee activity zones. DeLuna Fest will take place October 13-16, 2011, on Pensacola Beach, Florida. Early-bird general admission tickets will be available locally April 5, 2011, and online April 12, 2011. On-site resort hotel/ticket packages now available at Delunafest.com. Bands will be announced later this Spring.
