General

  • Hive Fest takes place at Camp Cedar Creek, a private 37-acre private property just outside Sandy, Oregon. Exact location is revealed once ticket is purchased.

    Land acknowledgement:
    We respectfully acknowledge that this campground is located on the ancestral lands of the Confederated Tribes of the Grande Ronde, Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians, Cayuse, Umatilla, Walla Walla, and Clackamas peoples. We recognize and honor the enduring connection these communities have with this land, its waters, and its wildlife. We are grateful for their stewardship and acknowledge the history, culture, and contributions of these Indigenous peoples, past and present.

    As we gather in this place, we commit to fostering respect, understanding, and relationships with the Indigenous communities whose land we occupy, and we encourage all visitors to reflect on this legacy.

  • Hive Fest is a weekend gathering focused on community, support, and personal growth, featuring shared activities, wellness, art, and immersive experiences.
