When the lights dim and bass drops, the Breakaway Music Festival is more than just a concert—it’s a collision of sound, soul, and spectacle. On April 25 and 26, Raymond James Stadium in Tampa becomes the epicenter of this electrifying fusion, drawing music lovers into a world where the boundaries between EDM, dance, and pop disintegrate. In 2024, Breakaway isn’t just arriving—it’s crashing into the scene with firepower. From the moment “Fisher,” “Louis The Child,” “Knock2,” and “ISOXO” hit the stage, you’ll know you’ve entered a realm of rhythm, raw power, and relentless passion.
The Soundtrack of a Spring Awakening
Brace yourself—this isn’t your average weekend jam. With twenty national touring acts, five local DJs, and two nights of bone-rattling performances, Tampa will be shaking, sweating, and screaming in harmony. Expect a mix of crowd-pleasers and sonic surprises, including “CELO,” “CHYL,” “Disco Lines,” and the double-threat “EVAN GIIA b2b MEMBA.” The lineup is a mashup of legends, visionaries, and underground heroes, all converging to make magic under the open sky.
Lights, Sound, and Experience Amplified
Breakaway isn’t just about the beat—it’s about everything between the drops. This year, fans will be immersed in curated experiences like The Launch Pad, sponsored by White Claw Surge, and the Silent Disco, a twilight wonderland where local talent spins as the night deepens. Expect branded bars, interactive zones, and activation stations that pull fans deeper into the pulse of the party. With sponsors like CELSIUS, Beatbox, and Loose Lucy’s on board, this isn’t just a concert—it’s an adrenaline-laced adventure.
Hosted with Vibes: Bobby Hendrickson Leads the Charge
It wouldn’t be Breakaway without a larger-than-life host, and this year, that role belongs to none other than Bobby Hendrickson, the viral force behind “@DJLoversClub.” With his signature energy and charisma, Bobby sets the tone for two days of unfiltered celebration. His presence ensures that the Breakaway vibe stays high, wild, and totally unforgettable. Whether you’re front row or chilling in VIP, you’ll feel like you’re part of something bigger than the music.
A Cultural Catalyst with Economic Firepower
Breakaway isn’t just turning heads—it’s turning the economic gears of Tampa. As it hits at the tail end of spring break, the festival is expected to draw thousands of attendees, flood local businesses, and generate a major revenue ripple. From Uber drivers to food trucks to Airbnb hosts, this event isn’t just a party—it’s a pulse of prosperity for the city. In a single weekend, Breakaway gives the local economy the same jolt it gives your soul.
From Columbus to the Country: Breakaway’s National Takeover
What started in Columbus, Ohio, back in 2016 has now become the heartbeat of America’s music festival circuit. With expansions into multiple cities and over 100,000 attendees in 2023, Breakaway isn’t slowing down—it’s speeding up. Tampa’s iteration is not just another tour stop—it’s a main stage moment, a defining chapter in a festival that’s rewriting what music events can be.
This April, Tampa becomes the stage, the soundtrack, and the story. Breakaway isn’t just a festival—it’s a fever dream of lights, unity, and sound that stays in your bones long after the last beat drops. Grab your crew, grab your tickets, and lose yourself in something unforgettable. Because sometimes, the music doesn’t just play—you live inside it.
