The Wakarusa Music and Camping Festival is a 4-day foot-stomping party in the heart of the Midwest. Born in 2004, Wakarusa burst onto the scene with a diverse and eclectic lineup featuring over 70 artists. The 2004 bill perked the interest of both devout and casual music fans alike. Fans that made the trip to Wakarusa left with unforgettable stories of the music and the beautiful surroundings of Clinton Lake and the Lawrence area. In 2005, Wakarusa returned and quickly established itself as a premiere, grassroots event in the nationwide outdoor music scene. Attracting folks from all 50 U.S. states and 5 countries, the 2005 event featured over 80 artists, 5 stages and over 4 days of non-stop music and entertainment. The following year saw even more musical diversity with the Flaming Lips headlining and many other alternative acts added to the lineup. Despite all this success, Wakarusa continued to embody a fan-based approach to designing a festival in 2006 and 2007. The 2008 event featured over 100+ artists, 5 stages and over 4 days of non-stop music and entertainment.



This year’s event, newly relocated to beautiful Mulberry Mountain in Ozark, AR, will be held June 4-7, 2009 and we couldn't be more excited. Festival organizer says, "we are extremely excited about this announcement and new chapter in our evolution. Mulberry Mountain offers one of the finest festival sites in the nation. It is on prive land, in the middle of a forest, on top of a mountain, surrounded by streams and waterfalls, with a class three flating river adjacent and amenities second to none. Our ability to produce an incredible festival experience for our fans has increased exponentially."
