It is less than a month away from the start of the Northeast United States’ best festival – Elements Music and Arts Festival. Taking place in Long Pond, PA from August 11 – 14, 2023, and utilizing its largest layout ever, the 2023 event promises to be bigger and better than before. With over 100 acts across 10 different stages, immersive art production, and engaging health and wellness programming, there is truly something for everyone at this festival.
The four main stages of Elements are named after the four main elements:

Past artists include GRiZ, Diplo, Zeds Dead, Sofi Tukker.
- EARTH – a psychedelic paradise featuring bass, jam, and experimental music.
Past artists include Rezz, Liquid Stranger, Clozee, Rusko
- AIR – a mystical temple that refreshes the soul with techno, house, and afrobeat sounds.
Past artists include Nicole Moudaber, Jamie Jones, Bob Moses, Maceo Plex
- WATER – a sunshine playground to play along with disco, house, and funk music.
Past artists include Claude Vonstroke, LP Giobbi, Gene Farris, The Sponges
The 2023 Elements lineup is right up there with the best events in the world, featuring some of the top talent in the industry. EDM legend Skrillex takes the festival stage as one of the event’s largest draws. Other notable top-tier artists include a Thursday pre-party set from Seven Lions, a sunset set from Lane 8, and appearances from the young guns of house and dubstep, John Summit and Subtronics.
There will also be stage takeovers by Chris Lake’s Black Book Records, Seven Lions’ Ophelia Records, and Femme House from co-founders LP Giobbi and Hermixalot. Especially noteworthy is special guest LSDREAM, who will share his Lightcode production which is a mindful and meaningful experience not to be missed.
In addition to the monster lineup scheduled to provide the musical backdrop to a magical weekend, there will be plentiful art installations and talented performers to behold, adding to the ambiance of the event. There will also be three full days of health and wellness programming including yoga, dance, comedy, and workshops to allow attendees the opportunity to expand their knowledge and grow into the best version of themselves.
And of course, what festival would be complete without a 24-hour food court that offers vegan and gluten-free options as well as bars, smoothie stands, and water stations? On top of all that, there is also a vendor village that offers craft goods, creative art, unique jewelry, and festival essentials plus the Elements merch tent with exclusive 2023 festival swag.
Tickets are still available, so what are you waiting for? The festival is easily accessible from major urban centers like New York City, Philadelphia, Boston, and Washington D.C. For out-of-towners, it is only 100 miles from major airports in Newark, NJ (EWR) and Philly, PA (PHL) or 125 miles from New York City’s JFK. So whether you want a car camping experience, an upscale glamping setup, or off-site hotel accommodations, there is a package to fit everyone’s desire to attend Elements Music and Arts Festival. I hope to see you there!
