During these nights, attendees will be taken through some of Grateful Dead's biggest and most beloved hits as they're covered and given a special treatment by some of the best in music.

There will be additional sets for the four-day event from Bobby Weir & Wolf Bros ft. The Wolfpack, Mickey Hart's Noche De Ondas, Orebolo, LP Giobbi, Sierra Hull, Brittney Spencer, Jaime Wyatt and a celebration of Jerry Garcia Band with sets by Oteil & Friends and Lettuce.
