Ready for an Extraordinary Festival That Feels Different?

Imagine a festival that’s less like a giant open field and more like a series of interconnected, magical villages, a vibrant, four-day city pulsating with life. That’s Pickathon. We transform the beautiful Pendarvis Farm into Oregon’s 51st largest city, a nature-based metropolis.

Winding paths lead you through beautiful meadows and through groves of trees, and around each turn you might discover an architecturally stunning music stage showcasing incredible talent, alongside cozy bars tucked into the trees, rejuvenating spas, hidden oases for relaxation, and captivating art installations.

It’s a truly immersive and personalized experience, the ultimate collaborative design music festival, where the magic of nature harmonizes with the artistry of humans. It’s this commitment to creating something extraordinary that sets Pickathon apart.
