VENUE UPDATES
This year you will notice a few big changes!
- The Crater– Discover a brand new area immediately to your left when you enter the venue, featuring a 360 stage, lockers and vendors, a new pathway through the festival and more. Music on The Crater stage starts on Wednesday and continues throughout the weekend!
- The Tunnel– No more road crossing! There is now a permanent tunnel under Route 13 to get you between camping and the festival grounds quickly and safely.
- Main Box Office Location– The Main Box Office and Lost & Found will be the first tents you see as you exit the tunnel on the festival side!
- Prehistoric Stage– You’ll find even more room to the left of the crowd at the Prehistoric Stage this year! We’ve created a new area for vendors on the other side of the road, which allows us to greatly expand the dance floor space of the Prehistoric Stage. If you’d like to get closer to the stage, your best bet to avoid any congestion is to enter on the left side along the vendors!
- Wompy Woods– Don’t forget to check out the brand-new VIP area at Wompy Woods, located in a new spot this year! We think we’ve finally found a location that will work for the long term, and we hope our VIPs agree!
CAMPING AMENITIES
- Nests – On your map, look for the “Nest” closest to your campground to find convenient showers, bathrooms, general stores, water filling stations, and medical.
- The Village Marketplace is the central hangout spot in the heart of the campgrounds. Eat, drink, shop, hit the Silent Disco, attend a class in the Discovery Center, or just sit in the shade and chill!
- Lockers & Charging – This year we have 4 different locker locations and each comes with a handy mobile charger. Reserve in advance or check the map to find them when you arrive.
- Lost & Found – The main Lost & Found will be located just outside the Festival Entrance next to the box office, open 24 hours per day until 12pm on Monday. You can Pre-register your phone in advance, that way if you lose it we will have an easier time trying to get it back to you!
