GRIZTRONICS 2027 will run for three nights at the Gorge Amphitheatre in George, Washington. Subtronics and GRiZ shared the news in a skit video on Instagram, saying the second edition of their curated weekender takes place over Memorial Day weekend, May 28 to 30.

At a glance

  • What: The second GRIZTRONICS weekender, hosted by Subtronics and GRiZ
  • When: May 28 to 30, with a Thursday pre-party
  • Where: The Gorge, overlooking the Columbia River Gorge in George, Washington
  • Camping: The campground opens on Wednesday

What we know

The festival is growing from the format of last year's debut. This time it spans three days over the holiday weekend. The pair also confirmed a proper Thursday pre-party, which Subtronics described as a for-real one.

With the campground opening on Wednesday, fans can turn the weekend into a five-day trip if they want to. No lineup or ticket details were given in the announcement.

Organisers also addressed a problem from the first edition. Long waits for campground and venue entry hurt last year's debut, and the hosts promised more entry lanes and more gate staff this time to make arrival smoother.

Why it matters

A longer festival and a visible fix for entry delays are both signs the organisers are listening to the crowd. Fans who want to hear more first can sign up at griztronics.com for early access to new information about GRIZTRONICS Gorge II.

The Gorge is a well-known venue for dance music fans, and it is a long way from most cities, so planning ahead matters. Camping, travel and time off work all take lead time, which is why an early date announcement helps. Subtronics and GRiZ have not yet said when tickets or artists will be revealed, so the sign-up page is the best place to watch.

The venue also hosts other electronic events. For another look at what happens there, see the RaveConnects listing for Beyond Wonderland at the Gorge.
