10 Things you must visit in your journey into the electric forest

You all know the deal, the forest is finally becoming within reaching distance and will be upon us in the next few months. Here is your place to keep up with new areas of interest in the festival, as well revisit some of the classics. The producers are constantly trying to change the dynamic of the festival to keep it fresh and interesting to repeat visitors, while maintaining the same feel. Here are some of the things they have done this year to make the experience unforgettable. 1. The rocket ship of doom - this is an oldie but goodie, this piece of artwork was placed in the forest last year. It is a rocket ship formed piece of work designed to be viewed from underneath it. Once in viewing range, looking directly up deploys a view of a vortex like view narrowing as the rocket ship climbs. 2. "The Birds Nest" - this is another old idea that the creators have used, but always manages to attract a lot of attention. Use of sticks and other materials are used in order to create a human sized nest in which festival goers are able to relax and listen to melodic music. 3. Rowdy Town - AKA "the barn" is a relatively new stage added that provides more entertainment than just music (although it provides that as well) the new stage is a full blown barn and offers the most trippy aspects the festival has to offer. Prepare to dance around the barn while weird gypsy women dance along with you. Also prepare to be buffed out by some of the coolest forest staff after a long day of wandering around the festival. 4. Craft beer tent - Who wouldnt want a nice cold refreshing beer in the middle of a forest on a nice crispy day? Good music and local beer, what could be better? 5. Jubilee stage - the newest and absolutely most exiting addition the the electric forest. The Jubilee stage is a tent encompassed stage that only the craziest shows will be played at. 6. Group hug world record attempt - last year the record was absolutely shattered by the forest family! With your support and the support of others we hope to break an even bigger record this year! 7. Giving tree - one of the most intriguing spots in the electric forest. Take something, then leave something behind. It's truly the gift that keeps on giving! 8. Marlboro tent - I dont smoke cigarettes, but dollar packs? Why not? 9. Secret meet and greets - PSA please sign up for any electric forest notifications via the application for the festival. While the constant reminders and updates to become annoying, there is some really valuable and secret information that other festival goers will not receive if they do not get the notifications. One of them being secret meet and greets with some of your favorite artists! so stay tuned... 10. The Main event - For some of the forest fam this goes without saying. Make sure to see the main events. Bassnectar, String Cheese, and Pretty lights (heavily rumored) are your acts you dont want to miss. These acts truly do make the festival pay for itself.
