DUSK Music Festival Returns To Downtown Tuscon

Tuscon’s DUSK Music Festival invades the urban streets this November, welcomed back with loving arms. Returning for its 8th exhilarating year, this all-aged, fan-favorite heads back to Jácome Plaza from Nov. 9-10 with one of its most eclectic lineups yet. Rio Nuevo, a group that strives to reanimate downtown Tuscon, partners with Relentless Beats to provide a unique and intimate experience for festivalgoers. This 2024 edition will be the grandest yet, rooted in showcasing a wide range of artists and some of the best food, drinks, and art Southern Arizona has to offer.

On Stage

Headlining the festival is Grammy-nominated artist Kaskade who just released his new anthem “Resonate” with John Summit ft. Julia Church, alongside soulful ‘TrapHouseJazz’ musician Masego, The People’s Champ Quinn XCII, and the official party-starter Steve Aoki. There will be no dull moments with Layz, ATLiens, Disco Lines, Peekaboo, Austeria, Emorfik, Odd Mob, and many more bringing the energy to the Alameda and Presidio stages! In the days leading up to this southern rager, Arizona-based artists get to compete for six festival lineup slots in the Road to DUSK Battle of the Bands and DJ Competitions taking place in Flagstaff, Phoenix, and Tuscon.

On Site

The festival highlights food traditions that run through the veins of Tuscon with an incredible array of restaurants, food trucks, and chefs who will ensure that no fan goes hungry! Previous cuisine lineups featured foods from Gastronomic Union of Tuscon (GUT), Dante’s Fire, Rollies Mexican Patio, Fresco Pizzeria, and even the well-known Culinary Dropout.

Showing support for the local downtown area, DUSK’s vendor village will host a mix of small businesses and implement the festival’s Tuscon ARTS program. This program commissions students for their work of sculptures, digital art, and lighting exhibits used for the festival grounds. The party wouldn’t be complete without the eccentric official partner Cobra Arcade Bar, which will house various games ranging from backyard arcade to the classics!
