Everything I can think of that you might need to know for Wakarusa, especially things not covered at Wakarusa.com
Please let me know what else should go on this list.
UPDATE: 8:33AM As some replies have mentioned, Alex has been found safe. She was located by the PD and word was received around 3 AM today. Thank you to everyone who provided their support. This has been posted by people close to the situation. Alex's father is on his way and very close to Arkansas . She will be on her way home shortly . She found another campsite and asked the people to use their phone and the people recognized her because our information made it all the way to Arkansas . I am beyond blessed and so thankful for all of your help in sharing all of our missing persons statuses. Our information landed in the right hands.
Just trying to relay this message. Here is the original post. Here is the text posted on there:
Local PD has already been contacted. She is about 5'2 and skinny. Last seen carrying only her wallet. She does not have her cell phone on her and is far from home. Any info could help return her safely. Her name is Alexandra and goes by Alex.
If you make contact with her or see her, call the Franklin County Sheriff's Office (AR) at 479-667-4127 ext 1
EDIT: More Info. This was posted by someone who was with the group. Alex had been with us throughout most of the festival, but the last two nights she went into the concerts with some friends she had made while camping. Last night, she was with us at about 9:30 at our campsite in the Upper West Woods of Wakarusa Music Festival, before stating she was going to lay down. Within a short time after we had gone over to a neighboring campsite and come back, she had left our campsite, and never returned last night, nor this morning.
We filed a Missing Persons Report with the Ozark County Sheriff, local Hospitals, and the last update we received was a conformation from Wakarusa Safety/Security that she was not on the festival grounds, or any of the campsites.
Alex did not have her cellphone, and we're not sure if she even had any money or anything except the clothes she was wearing.
She was last seen wearing black sweatpants, leopard print rainboots, a grey/light blue tanktop, and a brown velvet hoodie. She was extremely exhausted last time we saw her, and were doing everything we could to get her to rest.

... keep reading on reddit ➡It's hard to find the rules regarding this, I'm basically trying to see if there are festivals on music festival wizard then doing a site check but still not always clear if that state will allow it to function or not?
It seems like the following states will go ahead with outdoor events but not 100% sure on indoor?
Washington - yes - gorge events still happening apparently?
California - yes - seems like you need proof of vaccination?
Florida - yes - maybe indoor is happening too?
NY - looks like tickets are selling but not sure if this is only for smaller events and larger events are a no?
chicago, Il - if they are selling lollapolooza, i'm sure everything else is open lol...
Pennsylvania - looks good but not many festivals
NO states
Texas - no - but maybe September and onwards?
I think these are the major US states that typically offer mid-large festivals? am i wrong/missing anything? Is texas the only black sheep in not offering festivals this summer?
Party safe everyone!! Thanks!

The festival is June 5-8. My friend and I will be leaving Austin on June 4, and coming back on the 9th.
I have an extra ticket, and can make room in the car for another person. Contact me if interested. briarpatch1337@gmail.com
I'm looking to sell a full event pass to Wakarusa. If anyone know's anyone interested let me know and make me an offer.
Hey guys, we really need your help if you can make it. This is our 3rd attempt to clench a spot at Wakarusa. Last year we lost by 23 votes!! We are a very talented, unique, and hard working funk/rock/jamband from Dallas. All of us, with the exception of our drummer are avid redditors. (insert drummer insult here)
The Waka Winter Classic is a showcase of some of the best original Dallas bands. It is essentially a "battle of the bands" scenario. Come to Tree's this Saturday, pay the $5 cover, drop your ticket in the Gravity Feed envelope, get a free CD from us! Enjoy 5 awesome local bands with Gravity Feed topping it all off at midnight.
We will have a guy running awesome visuals (projectors), and we are sparing nothing on this show! This will be one to remember, I promise. If you can grab an armload of friends and be there for us, we would really appreciate it. We REALLY wanna make it happen this year! We'll come mow your lawn or something, I swear. Or I invite you just to come listen to all the bands, and decide which is your favorite!
Lineup is: 9pm We the Sea Lions"(indie/alt), 10pm Ugly Lion (reggae band), 11pm Effinays (reggae, rock), @ MIDNIGHT Gravity Feed, then 1am Goodnight Ned (rock). We have a KILLER set planned, you need to hear it!
Please try to make it out, it will definitely be worth your while! Thanks guys!
I’ve been going to festivals for about 6-7 years now but I’ve never camped at one before. I am an experienced camper though but curious about the weather in early March in Florida. I go camping during the colder months since I’m from Texas. I love camping but I despise camping in the heat. Is it fairly comfortable throughout the day?
