The festival which was forced to close its gates on Friday, August 9th due to the hurricane, quickly recovered from the lost day by adjusting its set times on Saturday and hosting an unparalleled scale of the event that it has ever done since its inception.
Featuring an eclectic range of artists performing a myriad of genres across its four “element” stages, these were the most memorable performances from Saturday and Sunday at the festival.
Justin Martin at Air Stage (Saturday)
Featuring a mix of melodic vocals combined with bass drops, and high BPMs, Justin Martin drew in swarms of festival goers at his set as tree houses were filled with dancers and C02 erupted into the crowd giving off the set an “airy” upbeat appeal.

Delivering a surprise set at 2 PM on Sunday at the festival’s water stage, Barclay Crenshaw treated fans to not one, but two performances over the festival weekend.

Chris Lake B2B Cloonee – Fire Stage (Sunday)
Elements Music Festival welcomed Chris Lake back to its Fire Stage for this year’s 2024 edition as he went back-to-back with Cloonee in a collaborative set that delivered a range of new IDs that mixed house with their iconic tech house elements. The duo is known to collaborate on releases with the most recent being Cloonee’s remix of Chris Lake’s “In The Yuma.” However, it appears there will be more to come from this vivacious duo based on the energy and the way they worked seamlessly together throughout their set.
