Today, We Belong Here unveiled the full lineup for its 2025 boutique music festival in Miami. Notable additions include Louis The Child, whose “Playground Set,” will be a fun-focused performance tailored to the moment, and Sultan + Shepard, one of the most exciting acts in Melodic House. The lineup now boasts over 60 performances spanning over two days, from March 1-2 at Historic Virginia Key Beach Park.
“We’re thrilled to announce Louis The Child as our surprise headliner, adding even more excitement to what’s already shaping up to be our biggest festival yet,” said Charles Hochfelder, co-founder of We Belong Here. “This lineup represents our commitment to showcasing both global stars and local talent, which we’ve focused on this year more than ever.”
Returning to Miami for the fourth year in a row, the festival will showcase performances across three stages: the Main Stage, featuring the signature 360-degree experience, the Beach Stage, and the Lost Village Stage. The Beach and Lost Village stages are known for showcasing local talent and emerging artists, providing a platform for up-and-coming performers to reach a wider audience.
Justin Dauman, co-founder of We Belong Here, emphasized the importance of local talent: “Our focus on local and emerging artists is a core part of our festival’s identity. These stages not only provide a unique beachfront atmosphere but also serve as a launching pad for the next generation of dance music stars. We’re proud to contribute to Miami’s vibrant music scene by giving these talented artists the exposure they deserve.”
We Belong Here is also excited to announce that Pati, the winner of the We Belong Here and Femme House guest DJ contest, will play an opening slot at the festival. This initiative allowed aspiring artists to submit their mixes and secure a slot in the festival lineup, highlighting LP Giobbi’s involvement and reinforcing the commitment to empowering women and gender-expansive individuals in the music industry.
For the first time, We Belong Here has partnered with E11EVEN Miami to introduce a new table service concept at the festival. Gino LoPinto, Operating Partner at E11EVEN Miami, commented: “We’re excited to bring E11EVEN’s world-class hospitality to We Belong Here. This partnership allows us to offer festival-goers an unparalleled table service experience at the 360 Main Stage and aligns two brands that share a core value of innovating from the status quo.”
Smorgasburg will again curate an exceptional variety of food options, continuing its long-standing partnership with We Belong Here to raise the bar for festival food concessions. At least 15 local vendors will be present, offering culinary delights that celebrate Miami’s diverse food scene.
