We are only days away from the Northlands Music and Arts Festival, which is the northeast’s premiere festival, and the outlook for the weekend is looking brighter and brighter. Located in Swanzey, NH, this event will occur on June 19-21, 2026.

Camping under the stars with cool nights and days in the mid-70’s? That’s only the backdrop my friend. The true stars of the weekend will be on the Mountain Stage and Echo Stage, conveniently located side by side so you won’t miss a note of music. The line up includes two sets of Joe Russo's Almost Dead, The Disco Biscuits and Dirty Heads, as well as sets by Dogs in A Pile, Little Stranger, Andy Frasco & The U.N., Lotus, Yonder Mountain String Band, The Slip, Mihali and more. Shall I go on? Why not?

The Campground Stage will offer plenty of rising band and DJ sets to keep the party rollin’. At Northlands, you can create the vibe you want. It’s all there for you. Go beyond the music. Massage, Reiki, Yoga, meditation are all a few steps away from your chosen campground. Crash out early. Rage till dawn. It’s all there for you. The endless list of eclectic food and drink providers will cap off the satiation for the weekend. All you need to do is go to northlandslive.com for more info. What are you waiting for? See you in Swanzey.
