LEVITATION was founded in 2008 by members of The Black Angels, originally Austin Psych Fest, and later renamed in honor of psychedelic rock pioneers The 13th Floor Elevators. The festival has evolved into a community-driven counterculture event that draws inspiration from Austin’s 1960s psych scene. The eclectic lineup usually features psychedelic rock, punk, indie, metal, darkwave, and electronic music.
4-day weekend passes are $395 + fees, while single-day passes range from $18-$55.
