The Grand Arena
This is the festival’s Grand Arena—the only neighborhood big enough to hold the entire Pickathon community at once.We wait for the sun to drop behind the tree line before opening this massive, open-air bowl. It is the best place on the farm to watch the sunset and serves as our collective "living room" under the sky. Each year, we redesign the perimeter to create a new architectural horizon, defining the space where thousands of people move together to the biggest sounds of the weekend.
