EXPERIENCES & ACTIVITIES

Electric Forest is where the unexpected becomes reality. Art, music, characters, and adventures turn friends, strangers, and everyone in between into Forest Family.

Each summer, tens of thousands journey to the Double JJ Ranch in Rothbury, Michigan, chasing sunlight through the trees, dancing under the stars, and making memories that last a lifetime.

The forest itself is part of the show, alive with vibrant installations, playful characters, and eclectic performances that spark wonder at every turn.
