The time has finally come, my friends, to dust off your dancing shoes. To unpack those tents and tapestries, and ditch the winter blues. The time to congregate in the spirit of good music is once again upon us. With a watchful eye we’ve been getting stoked, from all the bands on festival lineups.

Nine fun-filled months lay ahead — raging until the sun creeps on the horizon. People will think we’re crazy for the 20 hours we’ll be drivin’. But living for the moment and the experience is what it’s all about. And these gatherings of peace and art we def couldn’t do without.

The season starts this weekend Rockie Mountain high. Then Texas gets wild at 35 Denton and South By. Summer fests are nationwide, the options always grow. So go ahead and choose your poison from the list below.
