On October 14th, 2025, High Water Festival announced their 2026 lineup, which will be returning to North Charleston at Riverfront Park on April 18-19! I was thrilled when we received this announcement, as I’ve been photographing this festival for the past two years, and each year leaves me speechless—whether it’s the calm atmosphere, the astonishing food vendors that make you feel at home, the friendships formed with fellow content creators, or the music that brings everyone together.
Here are some musicians performing at High Water Festival next year: Alabama Shakes, Sheryl Crow, Caamp, My Morning Jacket, Peach Pit, and more! The best part about this festival is that there are no overlapping sets, so you are able to see every performance if you wish. The distance between both stages is not that far apart. Last year, across both dates, I think I walked about 26,000 steps a day between the stages while also speaking to attendees and visiting the food vendors! Get Baked was one of the best vendors High Water Festival could’ve had. The owner made sure the media team was fed and taken care of during both days of the festival. Make sure you check them out here!
