Ah, Labor Day, the end of summer. Accordingly, North Coast Music Festival bills itself as "Summer's Last Stand." (Though technically this is not the end of summer festivals, as Riot Fest hits two weeks later.) North Coast delivers a diverse bill that includes headliners such as Jamiroquai, Miguel, Axwell ^ Ingrosso and DJ Snake. Once the gates close for the night, the party spills over into several afterparties at local dance clubs.
