The sixth annual Evolutions Festival returns September 5-7 with an exciting lineup and a new home at Sugar Mountain Performing Arts Center.
The festival enters its next iteration with an expanded footprint, elevated production, and a lineup of large-scale international acts; the same intimate, community-rooted energy that defines the music and art event’s soul will be met with this year’s headliners Alison Wonderland, Of The Trees, and another major act soon to be announced.
This year’s experience will also bring in other major talents such as Inzo, Flowdan, and Zingara alongside many more. This offers the fans a rare chance to see big-name talent in an intentionally smaller, more personal setting. Other support acts set for the three-day event include LEVEL UP, Memba, Sippy, Manic Focus, Late Night Radio, Truth, and Yheti & Lespecial (LIMINOID Set).
While the festival is growing, tickets remain limited by design—a commitment to preserving the connective, open-hearted energy that Evolutions is known for.
“Evolutions isn’t just a festival—it’s a home built with love by passionate music and art lovers. The Evolutionaries aura is genuine and continues to exist outside of the bounds of our annual event in everyday life. It brings people together in a way few can, and we’ve designed every detail of this year’s event at Sugar Mountain Performing Arts Center to reflect that magic.”
– Michael Brown & Justin Brown, Founders of Evolutions Festival
Featuring two hand-carved wooden stages, nestled among natural wood sculptures and forest paths, the grounds offer a rich canvas for expanded camping and car camping while providing attendees with the space to roam and stay rooted in the Evolutions ethos of closeness, creativity, and care.
The transformational tone of Evolutions is always delivered through the focused immersive art, workshops, and wellness experiences; the dedication to the arts cultivates a hub for the arts community to collaborate and expand networks within the community. Evolutions highly promotes art in all its forms and that encouragement is felt throughout the event.
Whether you’re dancing under a canopy, enamored in a thought-provoking conversation, or finding stillness in a field, Evolutions Festival 2025 is where big moments meet small, unforgettable ones. Past years have featured a diverse mix of bass, experimental, live acts, and genre-blending talent, and this year will be no different—just bigger. Tickets go on sale this Thursday, April 10.
