The most international assortment of artists combines musicians from a number of continents in a whirling stew of sights and sounds.

Jai Uttal, Masaladosa, Mista Savona, Fanna-Fi-Allah, and more create a sonic blend of gorgeous flavors from around the globe. It's a dream lineup of international talent.

OE17 Big TopJam, hip-hop, Americana, and bizarre cirque, burlesque, and performance acts get their chance in the center ring. Introducing the Big Top, hosted by Vau de Vire Society. You've got EOTO, Steve Kimock & Friends, Vokab Kompany, Lyrics Born, Karl Denson's Tiny Universe, Elephant Revival, and more gathering in the high-flying, unpredictable, and whimsical land of the circus folk. This is going to be the spot to catch the wildest live performances coupled with the most exotic hosts on the planet.

Beyond these stages are the Earth, Sun, Moon, and more covering psybass, house and techno, uptempo psychedelic music, dubstep, trap, and most electronic music genres. You could get lost staring at the lineups for each stage and keep finding new favorites along the way.

Oregon Eclipse brings together the produceres of Symbiosis, SONIC BLOOM, Beloved, Brazil's Universal Paralello, Mexico's Ometeotl, UK's Noisily, and too many more to mention for what will go down as one of the biggest and most imaginative festivals in history.
