BeachLife Festival returned to Redondo Beach, Calif. over the weekend for its seventh annual staging. Against coastal views from the Redondo Beach Pier, the local favorite festival welcomed a grand total of 43 acts spanning the world of rock, indie-pop, Americana, roots-rock, new wave and more, amounting to an eclectic spectacle up there with the event’s most enticing lineups to date. The 2026 presentation was helmed by Duran Duran and The Chainsmokers on Friday, The Offspring and Slightly Stoopid on Saturday, and James Taylor and his All-Star Band and My Morning Jacket on Sunday.
