Wavescape Surf & Ocean Festival 

A strongly ocean focused lineup of summer activities take place for the 2023 Wavescape Surf and Ocean Festival presented by Vans in March. No fewer than 13 events take place between 2 and 22 March. The festival will include open air film screenings with The Galileo Open Air Cinema, Beach Co-op undersea cleanup, Blue Oceans filmmaking workshop, the Slide Night evening of ocean talks, the Board Meeting family and board swap day, and the annual Wavescape Artboard Project, comprising an exhibition of artistic surfboards auctioned for ocean charities. 

About the poster

The 2023 poster was designed by Buenos Aires artist Falu Carolei, whose work pays homage to skateboarding, rock, surf, tattoo, and graffiti cultures. In this iteration of the poster, Carolei takes the festival’s ocean eye (used in a long lineage of Wavescape posters) to draw on the inspiration of iconic 70s counter-culture creator Rick Griffin, who created album covers and other artwork.
