The Big Up’s new digs aren’t that far from its last: beautiful Hemlock Hollow Farm in Claverack, NY. The Woods Stage and Woods Village make their triumphant return, bigger and better than before! Hemlock Hollow has three times the area for woods camping, and there's plenty of car camping space also available. Located less than10 minutes from its previous coordinates, Hemlock Hollow is right off the Taconic Pkwy and is only 2 hours from NYC and 2.5 from Boston.

Keep it locked for major headliner and artist updates, as well as details on large-scale multimedia installations, contests and games, workshops ranging from music production to hands-on sustainable living, greening initiatives, yoga, farmers market and collaborative art.

“Far Out” weekend tickets will be available tomorrow (Wednesday, March 6th) in limited quantities for $95. Pick up "Far Out" tier 1 tickets and save $25 off the "Countdown" advance weekend price. These will sell out quickly so don’t sleep on this killer bargain! Ticket includes camping and all performances. VIP upgrades and RV passes are also available at this time. For tickets please visit http://thebigup.com/tickets/. Space is limited at this intimate, boutique music festival so grab your tickets before they sell out.

The Big Up has long been one of TheUntz.com’s favorite festivals, and we’re thrilled to see its return. Matching the best dance music from ahead of the curve with an intimate, community-driven atmosphere gives The Big Up a leg up on the competition. This is one you don’t want to miss.
