The Orchard Lounge celebrates Pickathon’s roots with a curated selection of hand-picked memorabilia from over the last 25 years. The lounge is a display gallery for vintage festival posters, photographs, art, and tributes to performing artists. As you enter the festival, you’ll walk through a corridor of exhibits showcasing Pickathon’s legacy.
Tucked beneath the trees, the Orchard Lounge is a reimagined tavern experience — a cozy collection of outdoor “rooms” with string lights overhead, L-shaped benches, and tucked-away seating where you can relax between sets. Whether you’re sipping something cold, grabbing a bite from nearby vendors, or just soaking in the ambiance, it’s the perfect spot to pause and recharge.
Thoughtfully designed by Walker Macy and skillfully built in collaboration with R&H Construction, the Orchard Lounge brings classic pub charm into the heart of the woods using a mix of new and reclaimed materials.
Portland-based landscape architecture and urban design firm Walker Macy envisioned the Orchard Lounge as a welcoming space rooted in nature and community—blending functionality, warmth, and a deep connection to place.
R&H Construction is helping bring this vision to life by fabricating walls, tables, and benches in their NW Portland shop, then flat-packing and assembling them onsite alongside the Walker Macy team.
