Big Music Festivals

Electric Daisy Carnival

CURRENTLY We are still deep in Covid-19 recovery. Some folks are beginning to gather, but I personally stand on the side of restraint until the virus is under control. I know some of you disagree. Because of this disparity, I am going to offer the list of pre-Covid events, and links to their websites where you can get current info.

If you have a deep affinity for your fave festival(s), please note that these festivals are fragile financially, many won’t make it through this storm. We have lost many of our events and will continue to lose more….. you, their loyal community, can help them make it through this – hold onto your ticket while they regroup, don’t ask for a refund unless you really need to, and make a donation or hold a fundraiser if you can. As community gatherings, it is only community that will keep them afloat through these times.

Be well, be safe, and cherish your loved ones, life is precious! <3 Saphir

EMISSIONS WEST COAST BASS CULTURE
May        Belden Town, CA       TBA
One of California’s premiere gatherings of bass heads and crunk-junkies. Hosted by long-running Burning Man group, Camp Question Mark, this event always has a vibe unlike any other. It’s a non-stop, high-octane, bass-fueled party; in fact, the crew’s goal is to ensure that you never want to leave the dance floor. Anyone coming unprepared to boogie until they can barely move gets left in the dust (until the next round of psychedelic mood enhancers kick in, that is).
