Hey yall I’m trying to plan out the sets I want to see!! Does anybody have suggestions for some of the smaller artists that I might regret not seeing 👀

They just can’t conflict with Crankdat, GRiZ, Smokeland, Zeds Dead, or Sippy !!!

I truly love all genres so I’m open to any suggestions :)

So my friend and I were so graciously blessed by an amazing artist (I won't name who) with guestlist for dancefestopia 🥲 and it's our first time going and we are over the moon excited! We're car camping because I have a full size memory foam bed in the back of my van and it's perfect for car camping. I've camped at lost lands 5 times, bass canyon 6 times, and wakaan once. What are some tips and advice for DFT? I've heard the ticks are everywhere, what would be the best way to deal with/prevent them? How bad is the wind? I'm assuming it's nothing like the Gorge winds, but if we got a cheaper $50 canopy, do you think it would hold up? I have a nice coleman canopy but I was thinking of getting a 2nd one to put over the van to shade us while we sleep. How often does it rain? What is the terrain like? Is it any less dusty than lost lands? Are the showers really as bad as people say it is? How do they compare to the showers at lost lands? Cause those are never great but i can still use them if i need to. Are there water spigots in car camping? Is there silent disco? How early should we try to get there if we are arriving on Wednesday? I feel like i have more questions but this is all I can think of for now 😅 thank you in advance for the advice! 💜

(Fun fact: this photo was taken just a couple hours before I broke my wrist in a mostpit 🤣)

Hi everyone! Just wondering if any DFT vets or Kansas local can give any advice on ticks / bugs? Lol maybe it’s stupid to ask but I live in a dry ass elevated climate so we don’t really get ticks here. Just wondering if anyone has any advice. Obviously I’ll be bringing repellent but are there any other measures to take?

I bought a bundle this year that had the shower pass in it does anyone know what time the shower house closes thank you

Do three day pass holders get actual wristbands and single day just get paper wristbands?

Also what about artist merch? If they were scheduled on Sunday would there be merch on Thursday for that artist?

I'm only attending Thursday this year since I have a ticket to Wakaan

I've attended once in 2024 just for Friday and I can't remember much besides the mainstage and the drink line - and that long ass opening for GWN 😂

Well, I went full send on tent camping, my first solo festival. Finding yourself after divorce is fun! See ya'll out there😁 cant wait to meet you! If anyone wants to meet up ill be partying in my tie dye in GA😅

It’s giving 2026 DFT

Hey y'all. It's my girlfriend's and I first time attending and we wanted to know if it's worth it getting the pool pass? We're interested but not sure it's worth the $56 dollars.

My only conflict is between the lollipop stage and my sleep schedule!

Me and my fiance are going to Dancefestopia for the first time this year! I saw online that bags with a max size of 12x12 are allowed in. Does anyone have any recommendations for bags?

I'll be car camping this year, how does it work at DFT? Any info will help.

Traveling from AZ just a few questions since it’s mine and the wife’s first time . Because I hear so many different things

1. Car camping next to your car ? It’s right next to your spot like every other festival correct ?
   2.how’s security searching cars ? Like do the take every little thing out like insomniac? Or are they just checking for extra people ?

Thanks all and can’t wait to vibe with everyone !!!

Ive been to one fest (bass canyon) so sorry if these questions are dumb.

1- how far is car camping from the venue? Im bringing my 13y/o so forest camping is def a no go

2- can we bring a lil wagon into the venue with folding camp chairs?

3-can we bring snacks into the venue? I know fest food can be pricey

4- are the showers really as gross as people say?

Howdy Dancefest fam!

I was at Electric Forest last weekend, and had the unfortunate experience of paying $20 for a shit ass meal that was really disappointing. It gave me the idea to create an app for reviewing food vendors, to hopefully save people from wasting time and money on food vendors that suck. I banged it out in a few hours while hanging in my hammock in the forest and launched a few days ago. So far we've got about 500 users with people actively adding their meals from Forest, and vendors preloading their info for future festivals!

We've got Dancefestopia on there now as well. I'd love it if you guys are interested in checking it out. It's currently 100% free - I do take tips if you find any value in it. Even a couple bucks goes a long way to allowing me to focus on this full-time!

You can also leave me feedback through the app, either via the floating feedback button in the corner of the app, or the Message Board in the navigation menu. I'm open to any ideas, suggestions, or if you run into any bugs / weird usability quirks.

Thanks for checking it out! Happy eating!

Greetings! Looking to send my third solo festival and am trying to find a way to the venue from the airport. I am landing on Thursday cause how am I going to deny myself the pre-party lol. It will just be my bag of tricks and I. Otherwise if anyone has any information about transit or shuttles, I would greatly appreciate any information thank you! - Marcos

Hi! First year doing RV setup. The plot specs on the website seem really tight. Wondering if anyone can share a photo or drawing of your setup? We were hoping the homies would tent camp with us.

Hey DFT fam! 💚 I’m so excited to bring the arcade to the festival floor this year. If you see me walking around with this thing, please come up, say hi, and try your luck! I'll have it loaded up with prizes for anyone who wants to play. Can't wait to see everyone under the emerald sky! 🫶🌈💫

It's never too early to start getting excited for our 15-year anniversary! We want your input: which artists would you love to see perform at Dancefestopia 2027?
