Dirtybird Campout Partners with Northern Nights for an Unforgettable 2025 Festival Experience

Dirtybird Campout and Northern Nights Music Festival Unite for an Unforgettable Summer Experience

After a much-anticipated return, Dirtybird Campout is back in celebration of the Dirtybird label’s 20th anniversary. This year, it is partnering with Northern Nights Music Festival to create a unique festival experience. This collaboration will take place from July 18-20, 2025, at the picturesque Cook’s Valley Campground, situated on the Humboldt/Mendocino County Line, surrounded by majestic Redwoods and directly accessible to the Eel River.

Dirtybird Campout has long been a beloved fixture in the dance music scene, celebrated for its summer camp-inspired activities, whimsical vibe, and an impressive lineup featuring house and techno luminaries. In contrast, Northern Nights has carved its niche over the past ten years by innovating festival experiences, notably being the first to permit legal cannabis sales and consumption on-site. Together, they aim to create an unparalleled event that surpasses what either could achieve separately.

This merger comes at a crucial moment for independent festivals, which are increasingly facing hurdles such as rising operational costs that force many to cancel their events. Rather than retreating, Dirtybird and Northern Nights are forging ahead, demonstrating that collaboration can be essential for sustainability in the changing festival landscape.

“To celebrate 20 years of Dirtybird, reviving the Dirtybird Campout experience was essential. While other festivals are canceling due to rising expenses, we sought a partner that shares our festival values, and we’re doing it bigger than ever. Northern Nights is an ideal fit—our visions align perfectly, making this collaboration seamless. We can’t wait for our fans to enjoy the best of both worlds.”

Deron Delgado, Dirtybird Label Manager

The 2025 festival promises to merge the whimsical charm of Dirtybird with Northern Nights’ innovative festival culture. Attendees can look forward to a diverse lineup, captivating art installations, wellness activities, exciting games, and immersive experiences that challenge conventional festival norms. With both brands committed to nurturing close-knit communities, this partnership is sure to draw a varied audience of music enthusiasts seeking more than just a party.

“Northern Nights has always aimed to merge urban experiences with natural beauty, a vision that started with a Dirtybird Showcase at our inaugural festival,” stated Andrew “BLAP” Borgelt, Co-Founder of Northern Nights. “This collaboration exemplifies what festivals can achieve when they come together to create something greater than ourselves. Known for pushing boundaries and reimagining the integration of music, experiences, and nature, Northern Nights is excited to partner with Dirtybird to craft an unforgettable summer weekend.”

For those eager for the return of Dirtybird Campout, this new chapter is shaping up to be a remarkable experience. With an iconic location, two influential festival brands collaborating, and a focus on community-driven activities, the 2025 edition is poised to become one of the summer’s most sought-after events.
