FESTIVAL INFORMATION
-
What is As Above So Below?
As Above So Below is two night event with music, activities, and vehicles for connection which serve as a platform for attendees to share creativity, engage in community, and have a great time.
In simpler terms - we are a three warehouse music festival with camping. We deck out three warehouses. One becomes the ABOVE stage, one is the BELOW stage, and one is the BEYOND where art and performance takes place.
People car camp and walk in camp on the grounds. Each year it has gotten a little bit bigger.
-
Where is As Above So Below?
As Above So Below takes place at the Jefferson County Fairgrounds in Port Townsend, Washington.
-
When can I arrive?
Gates will open Friday 9/26/25 at 3PM. Ticket holders should plan to arrive before 8PM if possible so we can limit vehicle traffic after dark. However, if you need to come later, we will have parking for those not planning to stay the night. If you come later and *are* planning to stay the night, we will have walk-in camping available with parking nearby.
-
Do I have to camp?
No, you don't have to camp!
But it's way more fun that way :)
We will have a variety of music and programming starting Friday afternoon and running through Sunday around Noon or so, with plenty of chances to be entertained, have new experiences, and make new friends.
We also have real bathrooms and showers onsite.
-
Can I camp in my vehicle?
Yes! Our campground allows for car camping, meaning you can drive in and pull right up to where you will camp. All cars will be facing in toward fire lanes (away from tents!)
Every camper will be able to set up in the space behind their vehicle. Coordinate with your friends to set up a group camp :)
We will also have a walk-in camping area, and day only parking for people who are choosing not to camp onsite - separate from the camp area!
-
What's the bathroom situation?
There are real bathrooms in each building, and a building which has real bathrooms and showers.
Yes, we are fancy like that.

Zero-Tolerance Weapons Policy
As Above So Below is a weapons and gun free event. Any weapons discovered during check-in, or reports of weapons during the event may result in immediate removal from the premises. We ask that all attendees help us keep this community safe. If you see something, say something.
-
Can I leave and re-enter the event?
If you plan to come and go, please let us know at the gate! There will be a separate parking area for re-entry to minimize vehicle traffic near camping and near the event.

-
What is Leave-No-Trace?
We are a leave-no-trace event which means we are all responsible for leaving the venue in the condition we found it. We will have a dumpster onsite to take any garbage from your campsites, but we ask that you not litter, do a careful sweep of your campsite, & take any recyclables with you off site!
Some things you can do to help:
- Plan ahead to minimize your impact
- Always bring trash and waste back to your camp and don’t litter! For cigarettes we recommend an altoids tin or butt bag.
- Pack garbage/recycle bags and collapsible camping bins to collect the waste you produce at your campsite.
- Bring your reusable camping utensils etc. to use at camp!
- Bring large reusable water jugs for your camp - we will have potable water onsite!
- Do a thorough sweep of your campsite with your friends before you leave to grab anything on the ground!
-
Are animals allowed?
While we love animal friends, please leave them at home for this event!
-
Can I bring my own soundsystem?
Sorry, due to the nature of the space and our desire to hold future events, only officially sanctioned sound systems and small, personal bluetooth speakers (not including anything larger like a speaker with wheels or a Soundboks) are allowed at the event.
-
Where are the bathrooms and is there drinking water?
There are bathrooms with running water, rustic showers, and portapotties onsite. We will have signage and digital maps to help you find them!
-
Will you be posting a lineup and set times?
Yes, the lineup and schedule will be posted prior to the event!

Can I bring my camera?
Please reach out to us in advance if you would like to take photos of other guests so we can get you an officially sanctioned pass :)
