2011
The 2011 Hangout Music Festival took place on May 20–22, 2011. The festival added another stage and began booking larger headlining acts. Attendance had to be capped at 35,000 per day, an unprecedented number for the second year of a music festival in the region, due to safety concerns. The 2011 event was estimated to have generated approximately $30 million for the Gulf Shores area economy.

2012
The 2012 festival took place May 18–20, 2012. Advance tickets for the 2012 event, which continued to be capped at 35,000 attendees per day, sold out within one hour. General admission tickets sold out on February 21, 2012, almost three months prior to the event.

2013
The 2013 festival took place May 17–19, 2013. The 2013 festival sold out as well, but failed to meet the previous year's "rapid sellout" of general admission tickets.
