Excision’s Lost Lands has begun preparation for another weekend and dubstep of dinosaurs, confirming this year’s ticket on-sale details and sharing its annual festival improvements ahead of its beloved Couch Lands Rewind live stream this weekend.
The renowned bass festival, which won U.S. Festival of the Year at the 2024 EDMMYs, will return to Thornville, Ohio’s Legend Valley Campground for its eighth edition on September 19-21. Last year’s event welcomed over 40,000 headbangers, making the prehistoric-themed bass pilgrimage one of the largest dubstep gatherings in the world.
All passes for this year’s edition will go on sale this Friday, January 17, at 3PM ET, organizers announced on social media. Tickets will only be available for purchase on the official Lost Lands website.
Chief among the changes outlined in Lost Lands’ yearly improvement update—pyro is back. After an unusual drought and fire ban forced the festival to abandon flaming production in favor of a drone show last year, organizers confirmed the fan-favorite performance element is expected to return in 2025.
Building on from last year’s marquee improvements, including a tunnel connecting Lost Lands’ campground and main festival areas and its new 360-degree Crater stage, other venue improvements include expanded space and improved walkability at the Crater, new stage designs, more speaker stacks, additional activations, an expanded selection of healthy, and additional seating and space at most stages in VIP.
In the campgrounds, Lost Lands will welcome Camp Dino Divas, a new space for female-identifying ravers, and another camp specifically for ADA guests. New workshops will be held at the campground’s Discovery Center, and more parking lot shuttles and a live text line are expected to ease wait times, according to organizers.
Ticket and campground pass rates during on-sale weekend will match 2024 prices, with payment plans available for all options. New for this year, headbangers can grab a 10-part payment plan with the festival’s lowest payment installments yet.
Today, Lost Lands also confirmed that its fan-favorite, weekend-long livestream event, Couch Lands Rewind, will return from January 16-19, giving fans a chance to relive some of their favorite sets from the 2024 festival via Twitch.
