Happy New Year, everyone! After a two-year hiatus from hosting Summer Meltdown, we are beyond excited to be moving forward with our 2022 festival and finally celebrate our 20th year. Tickets go on sale Wednesday, February 2, 2022! But first, we have to let you know about a very important change in the mix for Meltdown 2022: we are moving to a new location this year.

We were bummed to receive the news from the Darrington venue owners that they are in the process of reorganizing due to COVID, and have decided not to rent their venue during this process. We loved calling Darrington our home for the last 14 years, but we respect their decision and wish them all the best. This is not the first time or the second time we've moved venues! We are excited to embrace this new chapter and boy, do we have one heck of a new spot.

We've spent months scouting out locations to hold this very special event, and we feel confident that we’ve found the most perfect place. Summer Meltdown will reopen at Sky Meadows Park in Snohomish, WA. With 4 miles of riverfront property on the Skykomish River, forested camping, beaches, swimming holes, and stunning views, we're gonna be checking all kinds of Melty boxes with the added bonus of more room for everyone to enjoy. As we work out all the details, we'll keep you in the loop—but the vibe is strong with this one and being in Snohomish even cuts travel time in half if you're coming from Seattle.

We are stoked about this new chapter for Meltdown and hope that you'll join us for an extra Melty gathering Thursday, July 28th - Sunday, July 31st, 2022.

Sending love,

Josh, Genevieve, and the whole Melty crew
