Selected for its stunning, picturesque views, Treasure Island lays just off the coast of Yerba Buena Island in the San Francisco Bay.

When the festival of the same name began in 2007, it quickly became one of the premiere music events of the fall concert season thanks to its consistently fresh and exciting lineups (the festival has never repeated an act) and its intimate feel.

A sellout crowd of just over 12,000 music fans per day descended on the decommissioned naval base last year to see headliners MGMT and The Flaming Lips.

By splitting each day into genre-specific artists - the first day features dance/electronic artists, while the second features indie rock bands - the festival has previously hosted a wide range of acclaimed artists since its inception, including M.I.A., Modest Mouse, The Raconteurs, Justice, Spoon, Thievery Corporation, Vampire Weekend, Girl Talk, MSTRKRFT, The Decemberists and many more.

In addition to providing music lovers with the coolest artists and an incredible setting, Treasure Island Music Festival ensures that attendees never miss a note of music. With two stages that alternate between bands, rather than having them play simultaneously, concert-goers have the chance to literally hear every note of every artist for the entire weekend. When not watching bands, festival attendees can hop over to the Treasure Chest, the festival's interactive village full of games, a live mural wall, a photo booth, local craft vendors and more. This, combined with a 60 ft. Ferris Wheel, gourmet food vendors from local San Francisco businesses, a refillable water program, and buses to and from the festival loaded with Wi-Fi make the Treasure Island Music Festival one of the most amazing and unique music experiences of the year.

This year's logo for the Treasure Island Music Festival was designed by local San Franciscan Jeff Canham. Previous years logos have been supplied by Shepard Fairey, Jason Munn (of Small Stakes) and Josh Cochran.
