(MPR) The countdown to Wicked Oaks just got real. Disco Presents is thrilled to reveal the daily lineups for the debut of its newest, wildest, and most immersive music, art, and camping festival to date. With 60+ acts across three realms of sound and spirit-Freaky Deaky, Summoning Fest, and ILLfest-Wicked Oaks promises a world like no other. Whether you're drawn to big drops or forest grooves, now's your chance to choose your day: single-day passes go live Wednesday, July 23 at 10 AM CT via WickedOaksFest.com.
The spirits beckon you October 25th & 26th at Carson Creek Ranch, nestled on the banks of the Colorado River in Austin, Texas. It's a scenic 58-acre historic venue established in 1851 as a Spanish land grant. The ranch features a waterfront amphitheater shaded by old pecan & oak trees just minutes from downtown and three miles from Austin-Bergstrom International Airport. Its open-air stage, camping areas, and expansive grounds offer a unique Texas experience under wide-open skies. Wicked Oaks is a brand-new music, arts, and camping experience that merges immersive stage environments, interactive art, and a multi-sensory experience designed to transport festivalgoers into a realm unlike anything they've seen before.
Inspired by forest folklore and surreal storytelling, Wicked Oaks is curated with its own distinct soul-not quite Halloween, not just a music festival-a place where mystical creatures and shadowy figures roam among whimsical light displays, fire performances, and large-scale interactive installations.
What began as three separate festival worlds now converge for the first time-Freaky Deaky, Summoning of the Eclipse, and ILLfest each take root within the mystical grounds of Wicked Oaks, co-creating a single, phantasmal gathering unlike anything Disco Presents has offered before.
While Friday offers early arrival for campers with a special pre-party experience, the heart of the weekend unfolds Saturday and Sunday with a full slate of performances and immersive art. Musically, Wicked Oaks spans a melting pot of electronic genres: melodic and heavy bass, house, techno, world beats, electro-funk, and genre-defying hybrids-each realm curated by a distinct partner.
Carson Creek Ranch lies along the Colorado River. Campers will descend Friday, October 24th, & gain access to an exclusive pre-convergence before the full enchantment begins. Awaken your fate and select a camping realm; the mischievous chaos of Freaky, or the dark domain of Summoning. Otherworldly Glamping, RV, and Group Camping options are also available. Camping paseses sold separately. Campers can look forward to scenic grounds, premium amenities and a welcoming atmosphere at Carson Creek Ranch.
"This is a concept we've been building for a while," says James "Disco Donnie" Estopinal, Founder of Disco Presents. "We're excited to bring the best of Freaky Deaky, Summoning and ILLfest to Austin, Texas. Carson Creek Ranch is a beautiful place and Wicked Oaks will bring these communities together in a special way."

World-class muralists will paint captivating installations across the weekend, while genre-bending sets move seamlessly from lush grooves to mind-warping bass. It's the ideal setting for those who value creativity as much as music. On the more colorful and groove-laced end of the spectrum, Surf Mesa brings airy, feel-good vibes to the forest canopy, while Tony Romera's forward-thinking house cuts and SOSA's peak-time minimalism push the dancefloor into overdrive. Techno tastemaker Luuk Van Dijk rounds out the eclectic curation with his signature blend of deep textures and infectious rhythm.
