The two-day festival organized by Another Planet Entertainment and Noise will take place in Treasure Island, which is located right in the middle of the San Francisco Bay. Treasure Island was built using filling material for the Expo in 1939. The island was built by the federal government and was originally conceived to be used as an airport for Pan American Airline's Pacific Rim.

After a successful first edition of the festival in 2007, both the organizers and the bands invited are ready to rock San Francisco, the festival is planned to run for two days and each day is also set in two different music moods or styles. The first day is set up more for electronic oriented and experimental bands while Sunday will be dedicated more towards the Indie and Alternative Rock scene. The Treasure Island Music Festival
