Music festival season is heating up… and this one in the Poconos is about to set the tone for August and the rest of the summer.
The beloved Elements Music & Arts Festival is set to return this weekend (August 8 – 10), taking over 150 private acres in Long Pond, Pennsylvania — a mere 90 minutes from New York City!
Set to deliver four unforgettable days of camping, art, and electronic music, the 2025 edition is bringing together over 100 DJs, four elemental-themed stages, immersive art installations, and that signature mix of radical self-expression and community that’s earned Elements the nickname: “the Burning Man of the Northeast.”
For one weekend only, the forest transforms into a surreal playground of sound, light, and creativity.
Festival-goers can explore massive interactive sculptures, Vibe Villages (guest-created theme camps), roaming art cars, and live performers throughout the grounds — all woven between moments of dance music bliss across Earth, Fire, Air, and Water stages.
Each stage is uniquely curated to match its element:
- The Earth Stage leans surreal and melodic, with performances from artists like Pretty Lights, ILLENIUM, and Zeds Dead.
- The Fire Stage is all about explosive energy, with hard-hitting sets from Rezz, Sara Landry, and Deadmau5.
- The Water Stage is a fully immersive 360-degree experience, featuring deep grooves and wavy visuals from Eli Brown, Liquid Stranger, and Wooli.
- The Air Stage is tucked away like a hidden sanctuary, perfect for vibey sets from Wax Motif, Nimino, Justin Jay, and more.
Beyond the music, Elements 2025 is packed with unexpected surprises and experiential spaces.
Find your zen in the Wellness Zone with yoga, sound baths, aromatherapy, dance classes, and even comedy sets and workshops.
Stop by The Funbox for impromptu relay races and DIY talent shows, or head to The Bizarre for carnival games, poker, and quirky vendors.
There’s also the fan-favorite Unicorn Lounge (come for the braids and glow-ups), plus food trucks, handmade goods, and a secret speakeasy hidden inside a porta-potty—yes, it’s real, and yes, you’ll want to find it.
