WXPN announces the lineup for the 32nd annual XPoNential Music Festival Presented By Subaru taking place at Wiggins Park on the Camden, NJ Waterfront September 19th, 20th and 21st 2025. Celebrated for their signature blend of roots, blues, indie rockers, and singer-songwriters, this year’s WXPN thoughtfully selected bill includes indie rockers Courtney Barnett and Sharon Van Etten & The Attachment Theory and the eclectic, genre blending War as headliners.  Joining them at Wiggins Park is Greensky Bluegrass, Preservation Hall Jazz Band, Molly Tuttle, Soccer Mommy, Spin Doctors, Richard Thompson, Tune-Yards and more.

The outdoor XPoNential Music Festival features WXPN’s “impeccably curated” mix of established, emerging and local artists, as cited by Philadelphia magazine in naming it Best Music Festival in its 2023 “Best of Philly” awards.

Produced in partnership with the Camden County Board of Commissioners, the XPoNential Music Festival attracts audiences from Greater Philadelphia, Mid-Atlantic, and Northeastern US to Wiggins Park, which offers convenient access via public transportation, two waterfront stages in natural amphitheaters that produce great sound, lawn seating, and riverfront promenades that offer spectacular views of the Delaware River and Philadelphia skyline. In addition to its variety of artists, amenities that include free non-alcoholic beverages and an artist meet-and-greet area for WXPN members, a children’s activities area, and extensive food, beverage, and other vendor selections make the festival an enjoyable experience for music lovers of all ages.

“The XPoNential Music Festival has served as a staple event on the Camden Waterfront since 2005,” Commissioner Jeffrey Nash said. “As always, the festival has a wonderful lineup of diverse musical performances so there is truly something that everyone will enjoy. We cannot wait for this year’s event and encourage everyone to join us on the Waterfront.”
