October 29, 2024—Creators of the boutique music vacation, Topeka, are teaming up with the wildly popular LADYGANG Podcast—hosted by Keltie Knight, Becca Tobin and Jac Vanek—to present the inaugural LADYWORLD festival presented by e.l.f. Cosmetics.
LADYWORLD will feature a stellar line-up including actress, television host, NYT best-selling author, and reality star Ariana Madix, People’s Choice Nominated podcast Chicks in the Office, Comedian Gina Brillion, E! News host Justin Sylvester, Former Bachelorette and Dancing With The Stars Champion Kaitlyn Bristowe, Love is Blind couple Lauren and Cameron Hamilton, Tv personality Rachel Lindsay and Podcast host, Tv personality and three-time NYT best-selling author Stassi Schroeder at Miramar Beach, Florida September 26-28, 2025.
Additionally, musical performances will include themed evenings featuring “POP2K”: Chris Kirkpatrick of *NSYNC, Mark McGrath of Sugar Ray, O-Town, Ryan Cabrera, BBmak, LOF and “Emo nite” featuring pop/rock band and warped tour icons The Maine.
“As life gets busier and we see our friends less and less, we wanted to create the ultimate weekend of friendship, feelings, and fun. We curated and called our favorite people in pop culture to create a weekend of shows unlike anything else. When we thought about music, we knew we needed all our ladies to be singing along to “On The Way Down” by Ryan Cabrera, “Bye, bye, bye” by *NSYNC, and “Every Morning” by Sugar Ray. For performances and live podcasts, we went to the best. We’ve supported Stassi through all three of her NYT best-selling books and recently had her on the podcast again. She and Becca were hilarious about motherhood, and our fans went wild, so she was an instant ask. Fran and Ria from Chicks in the Office have a huge and loyal fanbase, and we’ve come up together in the podcast space. Kaitlyn Bristowe and Keltie grew up together in Canada. Jac is probably the biggest Love Island fan of all time, so we had to have the iconic Ariana Madix. There is no one funnier than E! News host Justin Sylvester, and when he suggested that he do a live chat with his best friend Rachel Lindsay, we were super excited. Lauren Speed recently came on LADYGANG, and the downloads went wild as people are still obsessed with her and Cam’s love story from Season 1 of “Love Is Blind.” LADYWORLD truly is a one of a kind weekend with beach time, activities, and a gifting suite!” -LADYGANG

The first 2000 guests booked will get to enter the LADYWORLD GIFTING SUITE presented by e.l.f. Cosmetics.
Each morning and afternoon will be filled with different activities—from pickleball and beach yoga to horoscope readings and shopping—followed by evenings of live podcasts and comedy, music performances, bonfires, silent disco parties and more. Guests can walk from their condos and beach homes to the open-air greenspace venue to enjoy notable acts from the comfort of their own personal Cove, surrounded by their closest friends and family along with delivery of all food, drinks and merchandise right to coves in minutes creating an intimate and immersive experience with comforts unheard of at live events.
LADYWORLD marks Topeka’s landmark collaboration with a podcast, having previously teamed up with artists such as Brandi Carlile, Tedeschi Trucks Band and more to curate their own weekends, all in Miramar Beach, Florida. Topeka’s Fall 2024 has already seen an incredible weekend from global super-star Luke Combs (October 10-12), with weekends from Lyle Lovett (November 1-3) and The Avett Brothers (November 8-10) coming soon. Spring 2025 boasts returning weekends from Carlile and the Tedeschi Trucks Band, as well as the beloved Moon Crush “Pink Moon.” Further info and passes at topeka.live.
