Pearl Jam, Eddie Vedder, Kings of Leon to headline 2020 Ohana Festival in Dana Point
The festival, which was co-founded by former North County resident Vedder, celebrates its fifth anniversary this year
Pearl Jam lead singer and rhythm guitarist Eddie Vedder will do double-duty at the fifth annual Ohana Festival in Dana Point, where he will perform this fall with the band and on his own.
Kings of Leon are the third headliner for this year’s edition of the three-day festival, which takes place at Doheny State Beach between Sept. 25 and Sept. 27. The festival was co-founded by Vedder, who grew up in nearby in San Diego’s North County.
