Summer Camp Music Festival

Taking place August 20-22, 2021 at Three Sisters Park in Chillicothe, IL. We welcome back long time hosts moe. and Umphrey’s McGee plus headliners, WeenBilly Strings, Three Six MafiaGRiZRezzSTS9 and Tipper among others. Although we are disappointed that not all previous artists could make it, we are excited to get to share the joy that everyone’s favorite pre Summer Camp ritual brings – new artist announcements!! Stay tuned for the hype in the coming weeks.

Together, we’ll make this an unforgettable weekend, SCampers… We are currently working hard to elevate this already stellar lineup by adding new artists & activities.

We’d like to also remind all ticket holders that if you choose to roll over your current tickets to the rescheduled dates, there are no necessary steps to take. We sincerely thank each and every one of you that has, and will continue to hold your tickets. Your support during these difficult times has meant the world to us and allowed us to continue to plan for our return. For the ticket holders who will be unable to join us due to the date change, refunds will be made available to anyone requesting them between now and April 2nd at 11:59pm CST.  However, remember if you are a current ticket holder and do think you will be likely to attend, the ticket you have is likely the lowest cost ticket you will find available as ticket prices will increase as we get closer to the festival.

More details and the link to the refund request form can be found at SummerCampFestival.com/SC2021. All ticket buyers should receive an email regarding refunds today, so check your spam if you haven’t seen it yet!

Summer Camp Music Festival’s first event in 2001 brought about 1,000 patrons to enjoy over 15 bands on two stages during the 2-day event at Three Sisters Park in Chillicothe, IL. Since, Summer Camp has transformed the grounds annually, welcoming in more fans, more fun and way more music. This event is now the host of a variety of performances on multiple stages over three days (four if you make it to the Thursday Pre-Party!). Summer Camp is the biggest event in the Midwest every Memorial Day Weekend!

Despite the growth, Summer Camp remains the “home away from home” stomping grounds for dedicated SCampers, welcoming in new attendees each year to become a part of our giant, music-loving family. It doesn’t matter if it’s your first year or 20th attending the festival, you’ll enter the grounds for the time of your life and leave with a life-changing experience. As one fan put it, “Coming to Summer Camp is like coming home.”

Almost tripling the population of Chillicothe for the weekend, Summer Camp creates a city within a city, and greatly impacts the local business economy.

Artists that have performed at the Summer Camp Music Festival in past years include: moe., Umphrey’s McGee, Trey Anastasio Band, The Flaming Lips, Willie Nelson, Bassnectar, Widespread Panic, Tom Petty’s Mudcrutch, Big Grizmatik, Les Claypool, Keller Williams, Pretty Lights, Skrillex, The Roots, George Clinton & Parliament Funkadelic, Medeski Martin & Wood, and many, many more!
