2024 community-run events
ONGOING
Listening Lounge
Festival HQ​
8:00am - 8:00pm daily
​
The Listening Lounge, sponsored by Accessible Festivals, is a chill space where you'll be able to put on wireless headphones and/or vibrating backpacks to experience with great clarity the music that is happening live on the stages in a more chill environment. So, whether the stages are too loud for you, or too quiet, or if the crowd is overwhelming, or for whatever other reason, you can come chill and experience the music with comfort from the listening lounge! Equipment will also be available to sign out for use at the stages and we will become a "roaming listening hub" with equipment available to try at the Beach and Forest Stages each night.
