With 50,000 people expected each day and big stars all around, Oceans Calling is set to be the biggest ticketed event in the resort's long history.

The music festival set for Friday-Sunday, Sept. 29-Oct. 1, will bring a slew of major stars to Ocean City, including headliners Jack Johnson, Alanis Morissette, The Lumineers and John Mayer.

But will it happen this year? As we all know, the first attempt to bring this grand spectacle to the resort was foiled by Hurricane Ian, but attendees still stuck around, to the delight of Ocean City business owners. This year, the forecast is for all systems go so far.
