New Festival Descends upon Austin, TX

Wicket Oaks

October 25–26, 2025 | Carson Creek Ranch, Austin, TX

60+ Artists • 3 Stages • 1 Wicked Place

Featuring Eric Prydz, Kaskade, Martin Garrix, LP Giobbi, Kai Wachi, SVDDEN DEATH + more

This fall, Austin’s festival scene gains a new gem. Wicked Oaks is set to take over Carson Creek Ranch on October 25–26, transforming 58 acres of woodland along the Colorado River into a mystical realm of music, art, camping, and community.

Across three immersive stages — Freaky Deaky, Summoning, and ILLfest — more than 60 artists will deliver two unforgettable days (and three enchanted nights) of sound and spectacle. From Eric Prydz to Kaskade’s sunset set, Martin Garrix, LP Giobbi, and SVDDEN DEATH, Wicked Oaks is already shaping up to be a landmark event on the national festival map.

Wicked Oaks unites three festival worlds in one enchanted forest:

• Freaky Deaky Stage: The Halloween favorite returns with eerie theatrics, pyrotechnic visuals, and high-energy sets from Eric Prydz, Kaskade, Bob Moses, Martin Garrix, Gryffin, Cloonee, and LP Giobbi.

  
  

• Summoning Stage: Curated by SVDDEN DEATH, this dark domain delivers the heaviest sounds of the weekend — with performances by VOYD, NGHTMRE B2B Kompany, Flux Pavilion, and a legendary SVDDEN DEATH B2B YVM3 B2B Nimda finale.

  
  

• ILLfest Stage: Where music meets live art. Street artists and muralists create in real-time while acts like Surf Mesa, Tony Romera, SOSA, and Luuk Van Dijk B2B Jaden Thompson weave their sonic magic.

PRESENTING: The Concert Dome by Electric Range

Step inside a 360° dome that fuses orchestral performance and electronic bass. A Juilliard-trained string quartet reimagines festival anthems across three themed shows:

• Wicked Strings (Friday)

• Strings of Doom (Saturday)

• ILL Strings (Sunday)

Each 20-minute experience features live strings, surround sound, and immersive visuals — exclusively for campers.

Camping Activities

From sunrise yoga to moonlit art, campers get the full mystical experience:

• Morning Rituals: Roots & Rituals Yoga and Resonance Renewal Sound Healing.

• After Dark: “Enchanted Flesh” burlesque, community mural painting, kandi bead workshops, herbal garden creation, and even mystical woodcraft and photo storytelling sessions.

• Find balance between beats at this serene wellness zone — featuring aura drawings, craft therapy, and RIIZE mood-regulating strips.

• On Saturday at Noon, join the Mental Health & Wellness Panel hosted by Amplified Minds, OUTLET, and End Overdose, with special guest Wenzday discussing resilience, harm reduction, and community care.

  
  

Wicked Oaks turns camping into a living art village of creation, connection, and magic.
