When it comes time to wash all those delicious bites down, Sound On Sound delivers with yet another impressive lineup. A selection of wines from vintner Josh Cellars will perfectly compliment a plate of freshly shucked oysters.

Beer fans can have their pick from a variety of offerings from Blue Point Brewing Co., East Rock Brewing Company, Fiddlehead Brewing Company, Kona Brewing Co., Sloop Brewing Co., Stella Artois, and Two Roads Brewing. Or perhaps mix it up with Downeast Cider, Fishers Island Lemonade, Hoop Tea Spiked Iced Tea, JuneShine and White Claw. And those in the mood for an expertly crafted cocktail can choose from a bright and bubbly Aperol Spritz, the Don Julio Californication Margarita, a Dos Hombres Mezcaloma, a Redemption Whiskey Old Fashioned, or a refreshing Tito’s Sparkling Lemonade. 

Array of food items from Walter’s Hot Dogs.

The increase in the amount and variety of food vendors isn’t the only thing to look forward to. The 2023 edition of Sound On Sound will deliver a massive reconfiguration of the festival experience from last year’s event. This year, expect more space (doubling the festival footprint), a redesigned and relocated festival site with walkways for ease of movement within the grounds, upgraded restroom facilities (flushable restrooms throughout the entire festival site), lighting and directional signage enhancements across the venue and parking lot areas, and increased mobile connectivity and coverage through the placement of additional portable cell towers.

This year’s festival will also present ticket buyers with a new stage and viewing experience as well. All performances will take place on a single massive turntable stage outfitted with a state-of-the-art audio and visual system. The new set up will allow for back to back performances with no overlapping sets, giving festival fans the opportunity to see every single performance without having to move between stages.
