The two-day, four-stage event is set to double in size, increase its audience capacity and introduce upgraded VIP packages designed to deliver a more elevated and immersive experience. The festival, which previously focused on largely on country and Americana, is also shifting its musical focus to attract a “broader mix of music lovers from across the Southwest and beyond.”
Hence its star-powered lineup announced on Tuesday by Phoenix-based promoter Oh Wow Company. The 2025 Dreamy Draw Music Festival will be headlined by folk rock band The Lumineers, indie rockers Vampire Weekend, retro-soul group Thee Sacred Souls, and singer-songwriter Father John Misty.
Other artists set to perform at the festival include Southern rock and blues outfit Marcus King Band, indie rockers Local Natives, indie pop group Saint Motel, electro-pop singer-songwriter Ashe, lo-fi indie duo Hovvdy and cosmic disco/electronica act Flying Mojito Bros.
Tickets for the 2025 Dreamy Draw Music Festival go on sale starting with a pre-sale on Wednesday.
'It was time to open this festival up'
The Dreamy Draw Music Festival debuted in 2023, showcasing a lineup rooted in country, Americana, folk, roots and indie sounds. Its first two editions drew an estimated 8,000 attendees each year to Scottsdale Civic Center.RJ Largay, founder of Oh Wow Company, stated in a press release that promoters decided to expand the festival’s musical direction for the 2025 edition, while also increasing its scale.
"After two tremendously successful years, we knew it was time to open this festival up to wider audiences, new artists, and more enhanced experiences," Largay said. "Dreamy Draw has always been rooted in storytelling, and now we're evolving that story with bigger stages, broader soundscapes, and in an immersive outdoor setting that invites everyone to awaken their desert spirit."
Dreamy Draw will grow from a capacity of 8,000 to 20,000 attendees. Its expanded layout includes a main stage at Scottsdale Stadium and an enhanced second stage at Scottsdale Civic Center’s amphitheater. (A walkway featuring vendors will be located between the two areas.) The festival will also feature larger areas for food and drink vendors, upgraded artist amenities, and a full transformation of the grounds into an “artistic desert dreamscape.”
Promoters will also introduce an exclusive Artist Pass that includes side-stage viewing, access to the all-inclusive Rattlesnake Social Club, complimentary food and drinks, a premium merch package and a dedicated concierge team.
Indie rock band Vampire Weekend is set to co-headline Dreamy Draw Music Festival 2025 in Scottsdale.
