📋About
❓FAQ
How many stages does Everwild 2026 have?
Three. The 2026 schedule was built with zero overlapping sets across all three stages and longer slots for most bands. Andy Frasco & The U.N. and Little Stranger take special late closing spots in the main concert bowl before the party moves to the third stage, tucked in the woods for late-night sets.
Which edition is this, and what are the dates?
The sixth edition, running 30 July to 1 August 2026 at Legend Valley, 10466 Jacksontown Rd, Thornville, Ohio. The festival was established in 2021, and the 2026 bill is headed by Dirty Heads, 311 and host band Tropidelic.
What are the gate hours?
Wednesday 5pm to 10pm, for VIP ticket holders or those with the Wednesday Early Arrival add-on, then Thursday, Friday and Saturday 10am to 10pm. There is no entry outside gate hours, and if you leave you wait for the gate to reopen. Every ticket type — GA, VIP, ADA, RV and Camp-By-Car — rolls in through the main entrance at 10466 Jacksontown Road.
Is camping included?
Yes: every GA and VIP ticket comes with free parking and free basic camping, with the 3-Day GA pass listed at $239 including fees. Camping beside your vehicle needs a Camp By Car upgrade (one vehicle per site, room for one or two tents plus a small shade structure), and motorhomes need an RV pass. Campfires are not allowed this year, and generators may only be used in the RV lot. Single-day ticket holders must be off the venue by 8am or risk being towed.
What food is on site?
Around ten trucks and stands, including Ben's Island Grindz, Cosmic Charlie's Grateful Grill, DISC O PIZZA, Yura Bowl, Mediterranean Cuisine, Crunchwerks and Dead Pie Co., alongside drinks vendors such as Seeds Coffee Co., The Shakey Lemon and Surfing Coconut. Outside food and alcohol are allowed in the camping areas but not in the main concert area, where bars take over. Glass is confiscated at the gate; sealed water bottles and empty containers are fine, unlike bags bigger than a sheet of paper.
Do kids pay?
Legend Valley shows are all ages, and children aged 12 and under get in free with a legal guardian.
Should you bring cash?
Yes if you plan to buy at the gate — gate sales are cash only. Credit cards work for advance online purchases through Tixr.
Is Everwild accessible for disabled guests?
Legend Valley is a natural landscape of grass, dirt and gravel with some steep hills and slopes, so the team recommends bringing your own wheelchair or scooter; a charging station sits at the back gate on a 110-volt, 20-amp circuit, with cords and accessories to be supplied by guests. Accessible viewing areas are provided at the Main Stage and Second Stage: non-smoking platforms where a companion stays with the ADA guest and spots cannot be saved. Service dogs as defined by the ADA are welcome once credentialed at the Front Gate on arrival; emotional support and therapy animals are not.
