Established in 1998, Pickathon is an independent, all-ages and family-friendly music festival hosted on Pendarvis Farm in Happy Valley, just 30 minutes outside of downtown Portland.
At the festival, which takes place over three days in early August, attendees enjoy musical performances on artistically designed stages by some of the world’s best new and established musicians. Considered a leader in sustainability practices, Pickathon eliminates waste through a reusable dishware and cup system introduced in 2010 and now adopted by others.
Visitors to Pickathon enjoy a magical weekend of camping, discovering new music, wellness activities including yoga and massage, and some of the best food, beer, and wine the region has to offer, all set against the beautiful backdrop of the Pacific Northwest.
