Pickathon Immersive Music Festival

Thank you! See you in the trees July 30 - August 2, 2026

Haven't heard of every band? Good. That's the magic.

For 25 years, we’ve launched icons like Sturgill Simpson, Khruangbin, Big Thief, and Leon Bridges long before anyone else. We find the artists you’ll follow for life.

But a ticket isn't just for a band; it's for a world that will never exist again. For four days only, visionary creators transform Pendarvis Farm into a landscape of architectural masterpieces and hidden spaces, built for exploration, not crowds. This is a summer camp for the soul.

Behind the Magic: The Creative Neighborhoods

Pickathon’s Creative Neighborhoods are more than stages — they’re living, evolving works of art. Built through collaborative design, hands-on mentorship, and community partnerships, each space reflects our mission to create world-class placemaking and lasting impact.

In 2025, over two dozen design teams will transform Pendarvis Farm into a temporary city of imagination and purpose. Explore the people, process, and ideas shaping the future of Pickathon.

Explore the Neighborhoods

A flowing, living stage — where rhythm and light dance beneath a glowing canopy.

The Woods Neighborhood is perhaps the most iconic neighborhood at Pickathon, tucked at the base of a natural wooded amphitheater.

Our largest stage rises from the meadow in this timber-built arena. Big sound & shade.

Creatively playful oasis in the shade, with vibrant installations celebrating African diaspora culture.

Tucked deep within a dramatic stand of Douglas Firs, the Fractal Forest isn’t just a stage—it’s a living installation.

A magical forest cove for kids and families — where music, play, and salmon stories flow.

A vibrant festival bazaar where local flavor, artisan craft, and community spirit come together under the summer sky.

Rage late or cool off early—air-conditioned sets inside, glowing dance floor under the moonfish outside.

Yoga by day, dancefloor by night—this space transforms with music, lights, and immersive art.

Your entry into Pickathon begins here — a flowing timber gateway inspired by the movement of salmon.

A dedicated space for healing, reflection, reconnection—with yourself, nature, community.

Cool off with AC shows and interviews inside, or unwind outside with shaded lounges, yoga, and live sets all day.

An open-air speakeasy and history lounge — a place to sip, unwind, and honor 25 years.

Start here! Check in from your car, drop your gear, and head to the festival by foot, bike, or shuttle.

Soak up sun, views, and art in Pickathon’s open-air living room—perfect for lounging or spontaneous play.

A hidden world of music & food in an intimate gathering— one of Pickathon’s most beloved traditions.

Closest to the action, Lush Camp offers shady ferns, quiet camping, and easy gear drop access.

Follow the glowing path of inflatable art connecting the Woods Stage to the main festival grounds.

Our closest in-vehicle camp—park your rig and stroll straight into the festival. No shuttle needed.

Remote vibes, easy access. Wild Camp feels deep-forest but is just steps from gear drops and the festival.

Off-site, on point. Park under orchard trees and an epic willow, just a half-mile from the festival.
