Often dubbed the smaller and more intimate version of Burning Man, Symbiosis Gathering has dropped a mind-expanding lineup for its Family Tree 2016 festival. Returning to its idyllic home of Woodward Reservoir in Oakdale, CA from September 22-25, Symbiosis Gathering invites some of the world’s acclaimed electronic musicians and live performers for a gathering of generations and ultimately an amazing anthology of transformational experiences to come.
This year’s lineup features some notable artists including FKA Twigs, Gramatik, RL Grime, Santigold, Ta-Ku (Live), Warpaint, as well as special performances by Symbiosis all-star family Beats Antique and Claude Vonstroke. Other top name acts include Low End Theory big The Gaslamp Killer, Dirtybird maestro Justin Martin, Berlin organic techno duo Pan Pot, and a seemingly endless variety of music to choose from.
Aside from hosting music, Symbiosis Gathering will showcase its renowned arts curation of visual art, sculpture, and interactive works by creative minds from around the world. 2016 will also be the festival’s second year to host its Art Boat programming, providing a new dimension to lakeside partying and scenic appreciation.
Check out the massive lineup below and see which one of your favorite artists made the list. For tickets, lineup, programs, and more information, check out the official Symbiosis Gathering site.
