The countdown is on! The Happening 2025 returns to Harry Brown’s Farm in Starks, Maine this June 19–22—and if it’s your first time, we’ve got you covered. Whether you’re camping out or coming for a day of music and magic, here are five essential tips to make the most of your festival experience.

1. Pack Smart (And Light)

Bring the essentials: a reusable water bottle, comfy layers for sun and cool nights, and something that makes you feel fabulous. Bonus points for costumes, face glitter, or your favorite dancing shoes. Not sure what to bring? Check out REI’s guide to festival hydration and gear for some solid suggestions from seasoned campers.

2. Know the Flow

The Happening isn’t your average music festival. It’s a community-powered celebration. Check the full lineup and weekend schedule to plan your journey—but stay open to discovering new artists, wandering the vendor booths, and joining spontaneous drum circles.

3. Respect the Land and Each Other

We’re guests on this beautiful farm. Please tread lightly, clean up after yourself, and support the people around you. This is a safe space for all—let’s keep it that way.

4. Stay Green and Chill

The Happening is a cannabis-friendly event—but let’s keep it safe and grounded. That means: no gasses, no powders, no pills, . We’re all about the flower 🌿, the people, and the vibe. Help protect the scene we love by being responsible and respectful. Stay green. Stay chill. Keep the scene clean.

5. Don’t Miss the Live Artists

Live painting, sacred geometry, handcrafted jewelry, and mind-expanding installations—our Live Artists are the heart of The Happening. Come meet the artists and find something magical to take home.
