//Our Vision
We invite all to come dance, relax, join our community workshops and explore the wonder for 3 days and 2 nights at a new, beautiful, wooded and hilly campground and retreat center in the Northern Midwest, just north of Minneapolis, MN. Crystal Sky Open-Air is an event that we hold close. It’s a gift that we all give to each other. Join us as we wrap up our eleventh year of bringing psychedelic trance music, tradition and culture to the Midwestern United States.
We provide: 2 stages of sound, visuals, art, spiritual growth workshops, and amazing community. Warm indoor and outdoor amenities and many beautiful and secluded campsites for a relaxing and energizing gathering as the summer ends and before the autumn chill sweeps in.
You provide: A tent, enough food and beverages for the weekend (or some cash: food and beverages will be available for sale).
ABSOLUTELY NO GLASS, NO DRUGS, NO PETS, NO FIREWOOD (firewood can be purchased on-site).
**This is a LEAVE NO TRACE EVENT**
Please respect the venue by keeping the grounds free of litter.

Artist Lineup:
Mandala: Sanskrit - that which contains essence "Since ancient times mandalas have had a powerful role in depicting, containing, and expressing the sacred. No matter their form, mandalas offer us a profound way to examine our inner reality, to integrate that understanding with our physical selves, and to feel connected to the greater universe. Mandalas are used as an instrument for communicating messages in a nonverbal language." (Fincher)
Taxonomy of the Psypien:
(Homo Sapien Psypiens- [psy-pɪˌɛn]) - A mammal of the primate order originally from Africa, that reached anatomical modernity about 200,000 years ago and began to exhibit full behavioral modernity around 50,000 years ago. In the late 90's he began to exhibit regular psytrance-listening behavior, and evolved into a producer in early 2012. Psytrance is Psypien's natural habitat; at once ancient/primal and futuristic/technological. It echoes the endless web of existence in which we live, and evolves with us with each step we take.
Psypien is the project of Oliver Z/L, who grew up in the forests of Vienna, Austria, and now lives among the humans of Brooklyn, NY, by way of California. Psypien aims to create evocative, powerful, and unique psychedelic sound, merging 'traditional' forest & full-on approaches with the more 'strange' and experimental; a soundtrack for a realm outside time & space. His mission is to stir up the spirits inside you, while freeing your body & mind. (and makin you feckin dance! 😉
About The Chilluminati:
Psychedelic trance, chill and ambient are the music that we play. Music in itself is a transformative and psychedelic agent. Our gatherings are more than music, however. They are multidimensional and multifaceted experiences-incorporating musical, visual, art and kinetic performances, as well as interactive workshops and community.
Our gatherings are about transformation and becoming. Whatever your sense of spirituality is, you bring that to the event. At our gatherings everyone takes responsibility for the event, others and themselves.
Our gatherings have an atmosphere and a vibe. The event is a field of energy that connects us. Our gatherings are about expressing yourself, being creative, and being an individual. Our gatherings are inclusive and open.
Our gatherings are both local and planetary; reflective of the American Midwest, yet global and culturally diverse.
We respect local laws and customs.
Our events are a gift which we all (organizers, artists, DJs, stagehands and attendees) give to each other. This is not about money, commercialization and exploitation. This is not a product; this is a community.
