A place for everyone to gather & celebrate life, Showcation Festival is located in Maryland at Camp Ramblewood and offers a weekend getaway for adults that feels like summer camp when you were a kid!
Teams were formed based on a personality test we took, and the rest of the weekend we spent time each day competing with our teams in different events called Camp Olympics! It felt like field day back in middle school, a permanent recess if you will!!
Meal plans were available for the weekend, and includes an all you can eat buffet where they served a massive spread each morning, afternoon, and night! Cabins were also available for campers who didn’t want to pitch a tent, stocked with cozy beds, your own bathrooms with showers (OMG), and all your besties under one roof!
Vendors for other food, coffee and cute clothes were also located inside the festival! We had the most delicious pita wrap & sourdough pesto flatbread!
Another low key but AMAZING vendor was the FREE cereal tent! You can choose any type of cereal you can think of, and they had multiple different milk choices as well!
Night one at Showcation included a Project X style party that tore the roof off the house 😂 props were placed so perfectly in each room to simulate that college house party vibe! If you were there you already know, and if you weren’t…better luck next year! Hehe.
All of this plus LIVE MUISC as soon as the sun went down! The PRETTY GOOD SHOW production team absolutely nailed the line up, you could feel their love and intentionality put into every aspect of this fest.
Between the world class beatboxers, live performances, and DJs we were TRULY in heaven; there really was something for everyone at this fest. I found so many new artists that I’m so excited to dive deep into-Elias Alexander, HoneyComb & Feed Me being at the top of the list!!!
The afters were hosted by the Jellyfish Collective, where we all danced into the early morning hours surrounded by lights, lasers, and jellies 🪼! After the main party wrapped, we found the 420 RAVE CAVE tucked away in the woods — a smaller setup with its own decks where DJs kept the energy wild, just like the rest of the fest. Total hidden gem vibes.
There is truly nothing like Showcation. The accommodations, production, energy & PEOPLE were 1000/10. We are so excited to bring all our besties back next year! Pre-sale is now live, go grab your tickets and meet us at summer camp!!!🏕️
