The Adirondack Independence Music Festival celebrates its 10-year anniversary this August 29-31, 2025, at the picturesque Charles R. Wood Park in Lake George, NY. The festival’s lineup features jam-band heavyweights like moe. (playing double sets Friday and Saturday), Robert Randolph, Sicard Hollow, Pigeons Playing Ping Pong, Lespecial, and several other standout acts.
Festival veterans praise the manageable size and the close proximity to the town of Lake George, which makes it easy to explore local dining and other activities. An added convenience is the festival’s re-entry policy that allows attendees to make quick car bar trips without hassle.
Camping options have been highly sought after this year, with many spots reportedly sold out. Local lodging is also limited and likely at capacity, so early planning was essential. Weather in upstate New York during this period typically stays comfortable with warm days in the mid-70s and crisp nights in the upper 50s—ideal for enjoying late-night sets but bringing layered clothing is recommended.
Despite a drier summer in the Adirondacks, spirits remain high heading into the festival weekend. The Adirondack Independence Music Festival continues to earn acclaim for its solid lineup, scenic venue, and intimate community vibe, making it a must-attend for jamband enthusiasts.
