Event Overview
The Pacific Northwaste is more than an event—it’s an evolving experience that brings together a community of creative, open-minded wastelanders in the heart of the Pacific Northwest. Held every Memorial Day weekend, this three-day gathering offers an extra day of immersive fun and connection, making it longer and more relaxed than most weekend events.
Our goal is simple yet ambitious: to create a fully immersive post-apocalyptic experience where creativity thrives, community bonds grow stronger, and everyone has the freedom to express themselves in a world reimagined. The vibe? Chill, inclusive, and unmistakably wasteland-inspired.
Set against the backdrop of the unique Pacific Northwest, The Pacific Northwaste stands apart. This isn’t about deserts and heavy metal—it’s about radiated forests, rugged landscapes, and the soulful fusion of folk punk and wasteland ingenuity.
Whether you’re a seasoned wastelander, a first-time explorer, or simply someone seeking an open and accepting community, The Pacific Northwaste welcomes you. Together, we’ll forge an unforgettable escape from the everyday world and dive into a realm where creativity and collaboration rule.
