High Water Festival is gearing up for another weekend of live music along the South Carolina coast, returning to Riverfront Park in North Charleston on April 17–18, 2027. Set against the Cooper River waterfront, the two-day event will bring together 20 artists across two stages, with a schedule designed to let fans catch every performance without overlapping sets.
Leading the 2027 lineup are multi-platinum singer-songwriter Jack Johnson and indie-rock favorites Mt. Joy. The bill also features an exciting mix of established names and emerging talent, including Death Cab For Cutie, Rainbow Kitten Surprise, The Revivalists, The Head and the Heart, Ole 60, Congress the Band, Mat Kearney, Finn Wolfhard, GoldFord, West 22nd, Mo Lowda & The Humble, Alyssa Grace, Hazlett, Marlon Funaki, Penelope Road, Ax and the Hatchetmen, Angela Autumn, and Susannah Joffe.
The festival’s return follows a standout 2026 edition, which earned High Water a nomination for Music Festival of the Year in the Global category for events with fewer than 30,000 attendees at the Pollstar Awards. The recognition highlights the festival’s commitment to thoughtful artist curation and an intimate atmosphere that brings music lovers together for a distinctly Southern experience.
Beyond the performances, High Water offers plenty for fans to explore between sets. The festival’s food and beverage destination, The Refuge, will feature a selection of local and regional eateries alongside craft beer and cocktails. Attendees can also browse festival merchandise and artist collections throughout the weekend, making the event a gathering place for music, food, and community.
