Who we are
More than a festival
Future Forest is a living art experiment where music, creativity and the wild merge into one shared experience. Now in its 12th year, we've made our home on a 200-acre woodlot on Little River since 2017.
Fiercely independent and built by artists, Future Forest answers only to the people in it. It's intimate by design, a camping-only gathering small enough that you're never just a face in the crowd. No one here is a spectator. You help create it.
You don't watch the show. You become part of it.
