Our Story

Neon Prairie—The Glowing Pulse of America’s Heartland

Join us in our magical forest… Year 2 is here!

What started as a dream has now become a full-on movement— We’ve poured in the grit, the grind, the sweat, and the soul… and we’re just getting started.

🌲 Nestled in a thousand-acre forest just 15 minutes north of downtown Tulsa, Neon Prairie is where music, art, adventure, and social impact collide under the Midwest stars. We’re the newest independent, multi-genre music, art, & camping festival on the block… Where late-night dancing meets mindful wellness, wild creativity meets community, and small-town charm meets big-league ambition.

Neon Prairie is where all kinds of people come together in one big, beautiful mix—something most places don’t often get. You’ll see indie kids, EDM lovers, bluegrass fans, hip-hop heads, creatives, skaters, yogis, VIPs, anime fans, artists, queer communities, cannabis enthusiasts, influencers, and just chill people who love music, nature, and a good time. It’s a place where everyone’s welcome, and you’ll leave with new friends you never expected.

September 6–7, 2025

(And a surprise new event will be held on Friday, Sept. 5… more info coming soon!)

We’re lighting up Tulsa with a one-of-a-kind celebration—complete with national headliners, immersive art, glow-in-the-dark yoga, fire performers, pool parties, human foosball, renegade campground DJ sets, and more surprises around every corner.

And yes— in Tulsa. Really.
Because Tulsa is more than you think. It’s a cultural playground where our prairie history meets next-gen creativity. A city where big ideas are born over backyard jam sessions and community means everything.

Neon Prairie is an idea that has grown up into a full-on forest takeover—part music festival, part art playground, part adventure zone, and all heart. It’s for anyone ready to celebrate diversity, push creative boundaries, and build something bold in the middle of America.

We believe festivals should do good, too

That’s why we’re launching the Neon Prairie Foundation this year to issue grants to talented musicians and creative artists who enrich our cultural landscape, leading to increased tourism, job creation, and economic growth.

We’re catalysts to activate beautiful areas with dynamic art that captures the imagination and inspires community engagement, while drawing visitors to Tulsa from around the world who appreciate our rich artistic and cultural showcases.
