Over the last ten years we have witnessed the evolution of a dream into the reality that now is Wakarusa, and the development of an international community of artists, performers and dedicated supporters. 2013 will mark the fifth year of Wakarusa on the marvelous Mulberry Mountain just up the road from Ozark, Arkansas - where sometimes the featured artist is Mother Nature herself.

Each year since its relocation, Wakarusa has been graced by over a hundred world-class artists that continue to stir the musical interests of folks from all 50 states and beyond. Wakarusa remembers its star-studded past over the last ten years with special performances by some of the nation's largest acts including Pretty Lights, Wilco, Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros, The Flaming Lips, The Avett Brothers, Bassnectar, Primus, and so many more.

Featuring five stages and over 12 hours of music each day, Wakarusa encapsulates a wide variety of music, art, nature, camping and outdoor activities of all types. Brand new additions include the official Wakarusa Disc Golf Tournament and canoe, kayak, raft, and tube rentals from BYRD'S Adventure Center. Along with scheduled Mulberry River float trips. Other featured activities include daily morning yoga at the Satellite Stage, taking in the scenery from a-top the Ferris wheel, the famed Friday night Costume Contest and Parade, interactive art installations, hiking the Ozark National Forest, and a special presentation on Unified Field Theory with Jamie Janover.
