NINILCHIK, AK — Sacred Acre, Alaska’s largest electronic music festival, returns in 2025 for its fourth year, with a diverse musical lineup blending world-class music, immersive storytelling, and a mission-driven call to protect our oceans. This year’s festival, hosted in Ninilchik from September 5-7, promises to be a sanctuary for those seeking both adventure and tranquility amidst Alaska’s breathtaking landscapes. More than a festival, Sacred Acre is a convergence of sound and sustainability, where the bass echoes the urgency of protecting the Bering Sea from factory trawling and bycatch destruction.
This year’s lineup features a dynamic range of artists renowned for their vibrant performances and profound musical influence. Headliners include the globally celebrated multi-genre producer Troy Boi, known for his diverse electronic bangers and high-profile production credits. Jade Cicada also headlines, fresh from launching his new EP and a national tour, bringing his acclaimed sound design to the stage. They are joined by electronic stalwarts such as Desert Dwellers, Dirt Monkey, and Emancipator, and a lively mix of hybrid DJs and live performers including The Funk Hunters, Lazy Syrup Orchestra, G-Space, Phyphr, and McWavy. The festival will also spotlight rising stars like Meduso B2B MLOTIK and Mantra Sounds, ensuring a richly diverse and inclusive experience alongside a bevy of local/regional artists. Stunning visuals by Actualize, Glass Crane, Stef.fx and Tekton enhancing the festival ambiance.
