The Mission
Marin’s Own,
All Day by the Bay.
We’re creating a one-of-a-kind, community-based, daytime festival that highlights how much incredible DJ talent is right here at home in Marin County. It’s free, all ages, and open to everyone. Because we believe electronic music is for all, and that dance unites people through rhythm and joy.
Lineup & Logistics
Six Sets.
One Sonic Arc.

On the Day
More Than a Stage.
Our sponsors are putting on their own things around the festival — on the water, on the grass, all afternoon. More to come as the day fills in.
All day
Watch from the water
Special rates across the whole fleet on festival day. Paddle out, drop anchor off Dunphy Park, and take in the whole afternoon from the water.
Reserve a boat
2:30 – 3:30
Flow to the first set
Start the day on the grass with a class running through the opening set. Same park, same music — bring a mat or a towel.

Calling all DJs
Get on the Roster
2026 applications are closed
Applications for this year’s festival are closed, but we’re always looking to meet Marin DJs. We’re planning to bring DJs by the Bay back next year, plus a few more events along the way. Introduce yourself and we’ll keep you in the loop.
Pre-Festival Party
That Was the Warm-Up.
We packed No Name Bar for a night of local DJs in Downtown Sausalito. Here’s how it went — and the main event is next.

Our Ethos
How We Do It
Hyper-local focus
This is a city-supported, public, Marin-based stage, so every applicant must currently reside in Marin County. The talent is homegrown, on purpose.
Inclusion & diversity
We're deeply committed to equity on and off the stage, platforming talent that too often goes underrepresented. Our crew and lineup include BIPOC, queer, and female / non-binary artists.
Equal billing
There are no headliners here. Every artist is treated and promoted equally, a vital part of one collective experience.

Who Is Helping
Interested in Helping Out?
This festival is free because the community makes it so. Tell us your email and we’ll shoot you all the details — the three levels, what each one gets you, and how it keeps the whole day free.
Crew
Lend a Hand
We may need some help day of. Let us know if you’d be interested and we’ll reach out if we need it. It takes a village!
Before the Music
Give Back Before You Dance.
The morning of the festival, our neighbors are running Make a Difference Day, Sausalito’s citywide day of volunteer service: neighborhood cleanups, planting, and hands-on care for the parks and waterfront we all share. Lend a hand in the morning, then join us when the music starts at 2:30.
