Field and Tent Spots Still Up for Grabs
Festival season is in full swing, and if you're a music lover who craves adventure, MoonFest is where you want to be! Scheduled for August 15 & 16, 2025, this vibrant gathering offers not only outstanding music but also a chance to connect with nature and fellow festival-goers. Even though reserved camping spots have sold out, there are still plenty of field and tent camping spots available. Trust us, you won’t want to miss this amazing experience!
An Enchanting Venue Awaits
Set on a stunning 50-acre property, MoonFest features a gently sloping field that overlooks Lake Leland, the largest lake in Jefferson County. Picture yourself enjoying live music while taking in the breathtaking views of the lake. This natural amphitheater boasts incredible acoustics that make every performance memorable.
The spirit of MoonFest thrives on community, creativity, and artistic expression, largely due to its partnership with "Neptune's Stage," a non-profit that champions the performing arts. Beyond the fantastic music, you also contribute to supporting local artists and the arts community.
Your Essential Packing List for Camping at MoonFest
Proper preparation can elevate your festival experience. While you might have your favorite items in mind, consider these specific essentials that will enhance your weekend:
1. Bring Your Own Drinking Water
Although water stations will be provided, everyone's body reacts differently. Bringing your own drinking water ensures hydration without any surprises. Plan for at least 3 liters per day to keep you refreshed while soaking up the sun and enjoying the live music.
2. Dress in Layers
In Washington, weather can change quickly. Wearing layers will keep you comfortable, whether you start your day basking in the sun or end it needing a warm sweater. Try pairing a light tank top with a flannel shirt and a lightweight jacket for comfort—perfect for showing off your festival vibe!
3. Keep Mosquitoes at Bay
Outdoor events often attract buzzing friends. Pack mosquito repellent, whether it’s a spray or natural oil, to keep these bugs at bay. A good repellent can reduce bites by up to 80%, allowing you to focus on enjoying the music rather than swatting at pests!
