III Points 2025 Kicks Off with a Strong Phase One Lineup
Miami’s III Points Festival returns to Mana Wynwood on October 17–18, 2025 for its 12th edition—and if the Phase One lineup is any sign of what’s to come, this year is shaping up to be one for the books. Spanning five city blocks, 11 stages, and over 150 artists once fully revealed, the festival blends big-name talent with offbeat flavor, always anchored by the city’s deep-rooted love for music in all its forms.
The first wave of artists features a wide spectrum—from global stars and internet cult favorites to throwback icons and next-gen selectors. The lineup already reads like the inside of a perfectly unorganized crate: Peggy Gou, Michael Bibi, Nina Kraviz, and Indira Paganotto hold down the club side of things, while Turnstile, Darkside, and L'Impératrice bring in live energy, fuzz, synth, hardcore punk, and everything in between.
And yes—THE Sean Paul is performing. III Points said let’s f*ing dance**.
House, Techno, Hip-Hop, and Nostalgia in One Place
There’s something poetic about being able to catch MK.GEE, Denzel Curry, and ANOTR all in the same 48-hour window. You can hop from one stage where Argentina’s Ca7riel & Paco Amoroso are whipping up a frenzy in Spanish to another where Barry Can’t Swim is laying out his warm, jazzy electronic textures.
The bookings say a lot about what III Points has always done right: refusing to stay in one genre, while staying totally in tune with what people are actually listening to—online, on vinyl, on dance floors, and in their bedrooms.
A Michael Bibi return is always special and not to be missed. Indira Paganotto, a techno force out of Spain with sets that blend psychedelic energy and full-throttle warehouse drive, adds even more weight to the underground end of the lineup.
Dutty Sean da Paul Comes to the 305
Let’s not downplay this. The King of Dancehall—responsible for more hits than anyone’s mid-2000s iPod could handle—is sliding in, and it's an insane addition to the lineup. III Points has always leaned into nostalgia in unexpected ways, and booking Sean Paul is a move that connects generations. Expect dutty wines. Expect singalongs. Expect it all.
All Eyes on Wynwood
Held at Mana Wynwood, III Points is as much a takeover as it is a festival. The art-filled blocks become home to immersive stages, curated art installations, skating zones, and secret pop-ups that reward wandering. And with the Satellite Parties returning the week before, the energy builds well before doors open on Friday.
As always, VIP includes perks like elevated viewing decks, exclusive bars, and front-stage access depending on the stage.
This is just Phase One. More artists, parties, and details are coming soon—but if you’re already sold, you’re not alone. With a mix this rich, you might want to start building your spreadsheet now.
