What is RevGen? Good question. If one person is nearly impossible to define, then how are you supposed to label 30,000 souls gathered for a music event that is itself singular in experience? We call it progression.
It’s progression from what a festival is, to what it should be. It’s progression in the quality of the music, the care placed in crafting the atmosphere, and the motivation we share for putting this thing together in the first place. More importantly, it’s progression in the hearts of our audience. We hope that you’ll experience the love which drives RevGen, and that in so doing you just might experience progression for yourself.
You can begin by talking about our stage equipment and the tens of thousands who decide to show up every year, but we're a lot more than an impressive resume. We're more than a daunting list of sound and lighting statistics, more than a skeptic-flooring list of artists, more than a mere music festival. There are a lot of shows out there, but the differentiating factor between us and them is that RevGen actually does what every other major venue should do- RevGen cares about its people. You can see that personal touch for yourself, everywhere from ticket pricing designed to help your budget rather than line our pockets, to the fact that you won't be standing around on skin-melting asphalt pretending to have a good time. We care enough to consistently go the extra mile in constructing artist line-ups that really reflect you and provide you with an atmosphere where the green fields, food smells, and core-resonating music manage to inundate you with the meaning of freedom. And seriously- where else are you going to get a shot at chatting with a band like The Devil Wears Prada? You aren’t going to find another festival featuring such a dense lineup of quality artists. It’s literally two days of excellence on the stage. RevGen is trying to be what you think every festival should be. Why? Good question. Not too long ago, we got tired of watching our friends wrap themselves around telephone poles. We began to hate the drug overdoses that claimed talented, potential-filled lives every year. We grew impatient with the substance-induced depression that seemed to descend all around us - so we decided to give something back to the region that smacked of life. That something became known as RevGen, a festival that proves you can immerse yourself in the best music culture and experience real life without having to numb your brain first. That altruistic cause, and perhaps a nod from Heaven, have seen RevGen quickly emerge as the premier music festival in the greater New York and greater Philadelphia areas. With some of the best music around, an unparalleled atmosphere and fields full of incredible people, RevGen is evidence that when people care, good things can happen.
We hope you will join us for RevGen 2010 and experience for yourself just how painstakingly we strive to express our heart through the quality of our festival. Be one of the tens of thousands that comes out to Frenchtown NJ this year for a singular experience. This lineup will be featured only once in its entirety, only once will the same crowd make the journey to our fields. Bring your diversity to our fields and be united for one transcendent experience. It’s about love, and we hope you walk away from our fields without a doubt in your mind that someone thinks you are valuable. Come and experience progression for yourself.

Where Is RevGen
The Revelation Generation™ Music Fest takes place on the grounds of Revelation Farms — 140+ acres of rolling green land in Hunterdon County, New Jersey. It’s the perfect place to experience a festival of the magnitude of RevGen. With plenty of pristine space available to accommodate our stages, artist interview sessions, merch exhibits, and extreme displays, we’ve maintained a quality venue where our audience can experience an unparalleled festival atmosphere.
Revelation Farms was founded by Robert and Kim Grom. The farm is primarily used as a modern equine training and boarding facility for horses. They have opened up their farm to host events year round because they want to give something back to the community, and to the greater Tri-state area.
