Infrasound Festival distinguishes itself by creating an atmosphere that transcends typical festival experiences, emphasizing community over headliners and education over entertainment. This year’s ticket sales reflect the strong culture and commitment Infrasound has fostered, showcasing artists and music potent enough to draw attendees nationwide. 

From its humble beginnings as a series of raves to its current status as a respected festival, Infrasound was born from the vision MN-natives and founders, Alex “Toffler” Heiligman and David Liberman, to bring elite electronic acts to the Midwest. Their journey from attending events at Harmony Park as teens to curating one of the most anticipated festivals in the electronic music scene is a testament to their passion for and dedication to the community.

The Portal Stage, an iconic fixture at Infrasound, exemplifies the festival’s innovative integration of art and music. Originally designed by Carey Thompson for a Tipper New Year’s Eve show in San Francisco, this masterpiece of woodwork and sacred geometry was later acquired by Infrasound to enhance its immersive experience. Known for his contributions to major events like Burning Man and Electric Forest, Thompson’s design, coupled with an Element 5 sound system and ClearVoid visuals, creates a unique atmosphere that is quintessentially Infrasound. This stage’s history from a bespoke event piece to a central festival element underlines Infrasound’s commitment to curating unforgettable spaces where artistry and electronic music converge.

The Pyramid Stage is not just a platform for musical performances but a canvas for visual artistry, with a storied presence at Infrasound since 2013. This stage is a testament to the festival’s intimate atmosphere, nestled within the forest campgrounds, where attendees can closely engage with performing artists. Enhanced by the pristine sound quality of Void Acoustics, the Pyramid Stage is a focal point for auditory excellence in the open air. Adding a significant layer to this intimate experience is Aaron Brooks (@abrooksart), an independent visual artist based in Colorado. Known for creating Subtronics’ iconic Cyclops logo, Brooks has a long-standing collaboration with Infrasound, where his live mural paintings become a dynamic backdrop to the music. 

Infrasound is more than a festival; it’s an annual pilgrimage for the electronic music community, offering a sanctuary where artistry, creativity, and connection flourish. General Admission Weekend Tickets are available for $239.99, including camping, inviting attendees to immerse themselves fully in the Infrasound experience.
