OLD The BMF Experience

What is Bear Music Fest? 

SUMMER CAMP

Cap off the summer at Lair of the Bear’s sprawling 100 acre camp, complete with swimming pools, dining halls, lodges, and fire pits. With performances happening all across the grounds, you’ll have plenty of time to commune with nature and make some new friends along the way. 

HOUSE PARTY

At Bear Music Fest, we go out of our way to introduce you to artists you won’t find at every other festival. With our focus on intimate stages, a community vibe, and fostering real connections with other guests and artists, you’ll feel at home from the moment you arrive.

MUSIC FEST

We’re live entertainment producers, first and foremost. Don't let our laid back attitude fool you—high quality acts, professional sound systems, and curating comfortable, enjoyable experiences for our guests are our top priorities. It's what we do in the "real world."

Why Should I Go?

"You need to go. I know it’s at a summer camp in the middle of nowhere that no one’s ever heard of, but trust me, it’s gonna be a good time.” — Che H.

“I’ve been to a bunch of music festivals, and Bear Music Fest is honestly my favorite...Nothing was so intimate, and friendly, and so about community as Bear Music Fest. It’s like summer camp for grownups... Magic doesn’t even cover it.” — April K.

“It felt like a week’s worth of music, and community, and experience packed into a couple days... There’s something about falling in love with an artist you’ve never heard of, it’s like you’re in on some sort of secret... Just go. You won’t regret it. You will love it." — Lizzie A.
