Hozier, Blink-182 Lead Sea Hear Now Festival This September
Sea Hear Now Festival is coming back to Asbury Park’s beaches September 13-14, 2025. Headliners Hozier and Blink-182 will lead the charge at this huge beach festival, expected to bring in 35,000 fans each day.
The impressive lineup features LCD Soundsystem, Alabama Shakes, and rock legends ZZ Top. Lenny Kravitz, Sublime, and Public Enemy complete the headline acts. Regular tickets start at $170, while VIP Ultimate passes go for $10,900.
Locals can grab tickets first at the Grand Arcade on March 20. Everyone else can jump in during the pre-sale starting March 21 at 10 a.m. ET.
Now in its eighth year, this beach bash features three stages – two right on the sand and another tucked away in Bradley Park. C3 Presents, Danny Clinch, and Tim Donnelly have grown their 2018 dream into a can’t-miss festival.
Big names have popped up at past festivals. Bruce Springsteen surprised fans by joining Social Distortion’s set during the first year, while Pearl Jam and Foo Fighters have headlined the main stage.
Between sets, top East Coast surfers hit the waves to show off their skills. The Transparent Clinch Gallery also hosts art shows supporting local causes.
The organizers team up with the Surfrider Foundation to keep the festival environmentally friendly all weekend long.
This beach party brings big money to the New Jersey seaside town, which has been a stomping ground for music greats over the years.
