FORMA FESTIVAL 2026

Sobre la experiencia

Devoid of distraction, centered in nowhere, built to hide, sought for ecstasy— FORMA FESTIVAL lives. FORMA FESTIVAL returns to The Garage, once again harmoniously fusing the discipline of techno with central Maryland’s rural beauty. Two days of the finest American techno, programmed against views of rolling hills, await. Welcome to FORMA FESTIVAL 2026 on October 17th and 18th. FORMA will once again showcase rising and established techno artistry all backed by an immersive visual experience that encapsulates the barn. On Saturday and Sunday, from 12:00 until 23:00, over 15 musical performances across two stages will take place alongside multiple visual installations. The Garage once again serves as FORMA FESTIVAL’s hub. A spectacular, distant space, the barn catalyzes FORMA’s self-discovery, featuring common green space, friendly farm animals, and a truly unique dancefloor. Standing as central Maryland’s premier live music venue, The Garage is a beacon for the arts amidst farmland. Filling The Garage, Eklektik Elektrik’s TurboSound system returns in full deployment. The legendary staple system, in a seven-point format, will saturate the barn’s dance floor. This full-force system projects the artistry and directs techno’s expression like no other. Community, safety, expressiveness, and freedom are the lifeblood of FORMA. Rolling hills, farmland, horses, tree lines, and fresh air—crafted with authenticity—frame FORMA, which removes unnecessary stimuli and focuses on the sounds on display: a sanctuary for techno in its purest form. Find your space between music and terrain. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LINEUP & GENERAL ADMISSION TICKETS WILL BE RELEASED ON MAY 18th. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FORMA FESTIVAL October 17th & 18th, 2026 12:00 - 23:00 16915 Darnestown Road, Boyds, Maryland 20841 18+ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Be advised: - Water will be at no cost— don't forget your reusable water bottle - Pack for a day camp - No outside food or drink - Government-issued ID is required for entry (18+ only) - A security team will be present at all times Food, non-alcoholic, and alcoholic beverages will be served throughout the day. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- // At Heaven Dancing Club, we demand that our space remains a home of respect and love.
