If you’re ready to experience the wettest party in the world, then say hello to the S2O Festival – hitting New York for the first time ever! Happening at The Brooklyn Mirage over Labor Day Weekend (Saturday, August 31 - Sunday, September 1), S2O New York is bringing a massive water music festival straight from Asia to the Big Apple. Here's everything you need to know about this iconic festival, so grab your friends and get ready for the ultimate summer send-off!
Lineup
First things first – the lineup is STACKED. We’re talking Marshmello and Subtronics headlining the main stage, plus epic supporting acts like Alan Walker, Timmy Trumpet, ARMNHMR, and LEVEL UP. Whether you're into melodic bass, dubstep, or big room bangers, there's a vibe for everyone. If you're a fan of Said The Sky or William Black, they’ll be doing a special b2b set, so get ready for the feels! Trust us, you don’t want to miss these performances. Get your tickets here! Two-day and Saturday tickets are already sold out, but you can still grab Sunday tickets for now. Get yours before they're gone!
Getting There
The festival is going down at The Brooklyn Mirage, a super cool indoor-outdoor venue that's basically a rave dream come true. You can catch the L train to Morgan Ave Station or take a ride-share directly to the venue.
What to Wear
It’s called the “world’s wettest party” for a reason – you’re going to get soaked! So leave the heavy makeup and delicate fabrics at home. Think waterproof everything: swimsuits, quick-dry shorts, water-resistant sneakers, and maybe even a cute rain poncho or bucket hat. Lucky for you, iHeartRaves recently launched swimwear that is rave-ready.
Where to Stay
Since the festival runs from 4 pm to midnight both days, you’ll want to stay somewhere close by to keep the party going all weekend. Williamsburg is a trendy area with boutique hotels and cute Airbnbs, just a short trip from The Brooklyn Mirage. If you’re looking to save some cash, you can also check out hostels or share a spot with friends in the nearby Bushwick neighborhood. Either way, book early – Labor Day Weekend in NYC is always busy!
So, what are you waiting for? The first-ever S2O Festival in New York is going to be a wild, unforgettable experience filled with music, water, and non-stop summer vibes. Get your tickets, round up your squad, and prepare for the wettest festival of your life! 🌊
