From a press release:

Camp Bisco is set to return for its fourth year to The Pavilion at Montage Mountain and Montage Mountain Waterpark in Scranton on Thursday, July 12 through Saturday, July 14 and, today, the electronic dance music festival announced its initial lineup of performing artists.

Performances over the three-day event will include six sets from festival founders and hosts The Disco Biscuits, Bassnectar, Excision, Tipper, Bonobo (live band), Illenium, Lotus, and STS9.

Also playing this year is Lettuce, The Floozies (feat. The Terminus Horns), Ghostface Killah, TAUK, DJ Jazzy Jeff, Jai Wolf, Papdosio, Space Jesus (two sets, including special downtempo set), 12th Planet, Anna Lunde, Big Wild, Boogie T, Boombos, Buku, Desert Dwellers, The Funk Hunters, G Jones, Liquid Stranger, Mija back-to-back with Billy Kenny, Oliver Tree, Quinn XCII, Snails, Sunsquabi, Zion I & Lespecial, Kung Fu, Naughty Professor, The Hip Abduction, Agent Zero, Bass Physics, Bluetech, Cofresi, Ducky, Flamingosis, Giant Panda Guerilla Dub Squad, Horizon Wireless, Kidswaste, Let’s Danza, Magic Beans, Orchard Lounge, Probcause, Space Bacon, Squnto, Yheti, and Zeke Beats.

The festival provides something for every fan – three days of music from the genre’s hottest artists, access to a waterpark in the serene mountains of Northeast Pennsylvania, and activities for everyone, including daily yoga, a 5K road race with The Disco Biscuits’ Marc Brownstein, a summer camp-themed color war, and other wellness-inspired programming.

The summer festival scene’s favorite food and craft vendors, as well as perks that can only be found at a site with true infrastructure, such as on-site restaurants, hot showers, real bathrooms, and more, make this unique festival an annual summer highlight. Fans have the opportunity to take advantage of a layaway program where they only have to put down 10 percent (plus fees) of the ticket price, making this an affordable festival and incredible value.

Camp Bisco was founded in Pennsylvania by Philadelphia electronica/jam fusion band The Disco Biscuits in 1999 and continues on to this day as the Northeast’s premier electronica-based music festival. With perennial performances from The Disco Biscuits, alongside sets from the biggest artists in the genre and exciting newcomers, fans of EDM, jambands, and electronic-infused rock are sure to feel right at home at Montage Mountain this July.

Special Early Bird pricing of $169.50 for three-day general admission passes and $209.50 for three-day camping passes is available this weekend only. For tickets, VIP passes, travel packages, and festival details, visit campbisco.com.
