ELECTRIC FOREST ORGANIZERS BRING HOPE FOR FESTIVAL GOERS BY ANNOUNCING APPROVAL OF JUNE 2021 DATES

According to Rothbury Village officials, the acclaimed festival is slated to return for its 10th-anniversary celebration this summer. The event was postponed last year due to the coronavirus pandemic and many fans were distraught when they found out that they would not be able to attend their favorite concert in the woodlands.

The initial proposal to have the festival moved from June to September 2020 was rejected by Rothbury Village Council, and the most recent rendition to have it in June 2021 passed. The specific dates are currently unknown, but two back-up sets of August 12-15 and August 19-22 have been marked in the event that it does not seem safe to have the festival yet.

Festival organizers have yet to divulge their plans for minimizing the spread of COVID-19, as it is difficult to forecast what the condition of the pandemic will look like this summer. According to the festival’s promoter, Madison House, anyone interested in updates on the event should head to the official website.

Getting its official start in 2011, the festival has been a core element for electronic music in the midwest. Artists from the likes of Porter Robinson, Griz, and Said the Sky have all touched the stage in Rothbury, Michigan, with more superstars to come in the future.

Something that distinguishes this festival from others is its location. Lying in the deep forest, concert-goers are able to experience an event quite unlike any other. It originally booked a mix of jam bands and electronic heavy-hitters, making it a perfect place for different personalities to come together and enjoy the unique sounds amongst the trees.

While many festivals have released their plans for 2021, not many get us quite as excited as this. Rothbury, Michigan is now becoming a mecca for some of the biggest acts in electronic music to perform, and many fly from around the world to experience the whimsical world that lies within the deep forest. This is certainly going to be an event to keep an eye on this summer.
