Shady Pines Festival Celebrates Year 5 With New Art By Portland Icon Wokeface (Photo) - 05/10/26

Shady Pines Festival, the immersive, community-built campout hosted by Shady Pines Radio, returns July 16 – 19, 2026, to Camp Tasty’s in Sandy, Oregon. Now in its fifth year, the beloved festival continues to bring an eclectic, genre-spanning lineup to the woods just outside Portland—this time with a special artistic collaboration to mark the milestone.

To celebrate its 5th anniversary, Shady Pines Radio has teamed up with Portland-based artist Wokeface to create its official festival artwork. Known for her psychedelic, joy-forward illustrations, Wokeface’s work explores themes of self-love, connection, and the magic of being alive. Since launching her practice in 2016, her colorful, surreal characters have appeared across murals, street art, and playful merchandise designed to delight the inner child and soften the edges of reality.

“Shady Pines has always been about lifting up Portland’s creative community, so teaming up with Wokeface for our 5th anniversary just felt right,” says founder Brian Bauer. “We’ve loved seeing her work around town for years, and her playful, heartfelt style really matches the spirit of the festival and the community that’s grown around it.”

Produced by Shady Pines Radio, the festival is shaped by volunteers, artists, and attendees who believe in connection over consumption. It’s the kind of place where strangers become campmates, musicians become collaborators, and everyone plays a role in creating the experience.

This year’s lineup features a wide range of local and regional favorites, including Jonny’s Day Out, Hippie Death Cult, Jujuba, Federale, Family Worship Center, Haley Johnsen, Mic Crenshaw, Small Paul, Night Heron, and Los Mal Hablados, with dozens more artists spanning indie, psych, folk, funk, punk, rap, and beyond. In addition to the music, attendees can expect interactive art installations, workshops, local food and craft vendors, and signature Shady Pines moments like the Thursday night Open Mic, Saturday morning kazoo parade, pop-up performances, and delightfully weird surprises around every corner.

Known for keeping things intentionally accessible, Shady Pines offers affordable tickets, food, craft brews and opportunities to attend for free through volunteering. The event is also family-friendly – kids 12 and under get in free, and this year also features kid-centric performances by artists such as Red Yarn and Fooble the Dragon.

Weekend and day passes are available now, as well as special group discounts for purchases of 4 or more adult tickets. Prices will rise as the event date grows closer, so now is the best time to secure a spot at one of the Pacific Northwest’s most welcoming and creatively charged festivals. Volunteer sign-ups and Visual Artist applications are available on the festival’s website for those looking to get involved behind the scenes.
