Start of Doah Fest - The Farm A Look into Doah Fest Sharing a love for local art, music, and nature, the founders of Doah Fest set out to bring these things to one amazing location—The Farm. Located in Luray, VA, The Farm is 287 private acres nestled between the Shenandoah River and the Blue Ridge Mountains. Providing a picturesque scenery, any worries are drowned by the rippling river and whispers of nature. Doah Fest provides the opportunity for festival goers to leave their everyday worries behind and truly Unplug and Connect. The Festival offers an extraordinary fourday weekend of music, art, yoga, meditation, and much more. With growing numbers of fans across social media, Doah Fest 2015 is predicted to bring in nearly 800 attendees. Activities: Local musicians perform throughout the day. Festival goers participate in river tubing, volleyball, corn hole, Frisbee and much more. The fun-loving environment inspires artists to create experiential art. Guests can dance the night away between The Grove, an amplified EDM space, and the Silent Disco, where the vibration of music is delivered through individual headphones. The night calms under a starry sky and community bonfire. Yoga & Meditation: Quiet the mind, breathe in the clean air, and start the day with mediation; a moment of clarity and peace on the banks of The Shenandoah. From novice to advanced, morning yoga offers a setting conducive to relaxation and introspection. Artisans: Watch one of a kind art created across the festival grounds. The spinning of the wood-carving wheel is sure to amaze young and old. A huge spray paint wall invites all festival goers to express their inner artist, contributing to the collective portrait of Doah Fest. Entertainment: Jam to the beat of rock, country, bluegrass, EDM, reggae, and jam bands. From the Main Stage to a late night jam session around the camp fire, festival goers will find music to inspire. The River Set, a one of a kind stage overlooking the Shenandoah River, welcomes you to enjoy the river without missing a beat.
