We’re headed back to one of our favorite festivals on earth: Deep Tropics. This marks our fourth year dancing through the heat of Music City. And somehow, each year just keeps getting better. With its award-nominated vibes (yes, DJ Mag nominated it one of the Best Boutique Festivals in North America) and its commitment to sustainability, creativity, and sonic exploration, Deep Tropics is a gem that truly lives up to the hype. WE LOVE IT, AND YOU WILL TOO!
Happening in Bicentennial Park in downtown Nashville, Deep Tropics is a radiant fusion of music, art, and jungle-inspired style. The tropical stage design and immersive installations make this fest one of the most visually stunning in the scene, while the music lineup always brings a diverse, global, genre-bending mix to the table.
This year’s 2025 lineup is packed with legends, underground stars, and rising voices across four immersive stages. Over at Meru, we’ll be dancing to headliners like Chris Lake, Lane 8, Chris Lorenzo, and Disco Lines, with an epic special guest closing set from Cloonee. We’re also stoked for sets from Aluna (DJ Set) and more.
Over on the Lotus stage, it’s a bass dream lineup. We’re ready for the return of Alison Wonderland, Subtronics, and Liquid Stranger, plus heat from TroyBoi, Machinedrum (DJ Set), Maddy O’Neal, and so many others, we can’t even begin to imagine the magic that will go down.
The Congo stage will bring the deeper grooves and an incredible mix of talent, and make sure you check out the Deep Culture Speakeasy for a more intimate vibe-forward space hosted by the one and only Madame Gandhi. You’ll find curated performances that feel like a dream.
This year is especially exciting for The Festival Babes because we’re hosting another amazing creator house! It’ll be a content-filled hub for activations, collaborations, and brand partnerships, and we can’t wait to give you a peek behind the scenes. From dance floor takeovers to outfit highlights, and community hangs, it’s going to be our most inspired Deep Tropics yet.
If you’ve never been, this is your sign. And if you’re coming back, we’ll see you there, sweaty, glowing, and wildly alive in the jungle of downtown Nashville. 🌿
Let us know if you’ll be joining us in the jungle!
XOXO,
The Festival Babes Fam
