The Return to Raymond James

The 2026 Sunset Music Festival (SMF) is shaping up to be the most technologically advanced iteration yet. Here's what the Liquid Tampa team is most excited about.

Holographic Stages

This year, the main stage will feature 4D holographic projections, allowing producers to perform deep within a digital landscape that syncs perfectly with their live sets.

The Liquid After-Party Series

As the official partner for SMF 2026, Liquid Tampa will host the exclusive 'After-Dark' series. Expect surprise B2B sets from the festival's headliners in an intimate, 500-capacity room.
