Freak Show Day Fest

Freak Show Day Fest: Master of All Elements

October 10–11 | 12 PM – 12 AM | Fayetteville, AR | 18+ All Day | Explicit Content After Dark

Overnight Primitive Camping Available

Step right up for an unforgettable weekend of art, music, and mystique in the heart of Northwest Arkansas! Hosted by NWA CAMP, the Freak Show Day Fest returns for its third act—Master of All Elements—bringing together the weird, the wild, and the wonderfully talented from among us.

This immersive two-day festival transforms the natural landscape at Metal Mountain into a living dreamscape filled with live music, interactive art, circus spectacles, and otherworldly attractions. With 12 hours of live performances each day and camping under the stars, this is more than a festival—it’s a gathering of creators, misfits, magic-makers, and of course- FREAKS. We welcome people from all walks of life, feature music from all genres, and seek to create a community, impact, and connection through this shared experience. At its heart, Freak Fest is a celebration of self-expression, collective creativity, and all things alternative or other and the beautiful chaos that happens when we bring these underground ideals to the mainstream. Come as you are—and leave transformed.

Phantasma will create a world of wonder for all ages on THURSDAY and FRIDAY NIGHT, October 9th and 10th. This multi-sensory installation is free to join, but we ask that you reserve your spot at your preferred time.

During your dedicated hour-long experience, you'll enjoy a mesmerizing laser light show and dance along with a silent disco surrounded by the beauty of the Lower Ramble. Three DJs curated by Her Set Her Sound will be on three different channels for you to choose a variety of sounds to dance to while the lights move around you. Headphones are provided, but not necessary to enjoy the light show and music.

Food and drink will be available for purchase at the Lower Ramble entrance on West Ave. You can also utilize the City's Open Refreshment Area (ORA) and grab an adult beverage at a nearby business beforehand to take with you to enjoy. 

AND NEW THIS YEAR!! On Saturday, October 11th, the lasers and DJs will move to the newly completed Upper Ramble for a totally different Phantasmic experience. This Glow Party will be from 7 to 10pm and is also free for all ages to participate. A lineup of DJs will be playing during the evening with dance music for everyone to enjoy under the flashing laser light show. No reservations required, open to all!

Don't miss out on this FREE event in the heart of the city brought to you by Downtown Fayetteville Coalition and the City of Fayetteville Arts & Culture. The Ramble is fully accessible and all ages are invited to join!
