Is San Francisco’s Portola music festival worth the trip from Los Angeles? After seeing their 2024 lineup, we think so.
The 2024 Portola Music Festival will take place on Saturday, September 28, and Sunday, September 29, at Pier 80 in San Francisco, California.
Tickets to the Portola Music Festival will go on sale Friday, May 17, at 12pm. Interested music fans can register now. Those who purchased tickets in 2022 or 2023 will have access to presale tickets beginning Thursday, May 16 at 12 PM. To access the past purchaser presale just register with the same phone number you used when you purchased those past tickets.
What we love about Portola this year is the lineup. RÜFÜS DU SOL, Gesaffelstein, Peaches, M.I.A., Jamie XX, Empress Of, Deltron 3030, Four Tet, Jessie Ware, Soulwax, LP Giobbi, and many more.

While Southern California holds the throne for the best music festivals, Portola looks great this year. And considering San Francisco has its best weather towards the end of September and October, this festival will be a welcoming visit for Southern Californians, who are accustomed to sunshine and perfect weather.
