Music Genres
Bouncy & Wiggly – one element that sets this event apart from other local festivals is the music. One of the only local festivals that cater to the house heads: Deep; Jackin; Melodic, Progressive, Tech, and everything in between for House music. Although we are a house music-driven festival, we also feature various other genres such as Techno, DnB, Chillout, and Psychedelic. VOID Sound
That’s right, we have arranged for a pounding VOID system for this year’s main stage.
+ We have tons of awesome lighting, projections, lasers, and all sorts of other goodies tantalizing all your senses.

You may camp along the long clear path in the forest or the several clearings designated for camping (Maps will be provided).
