The gates will open at 8 AM and close at 7 PM on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. On Sunday, the gates open at 8 AM and close at 12 noon.

in short: figure out a way to make it during gate hours.

This property is laid out differently, so some things will be changing. First, we ask for everyone to not leave the grounds once they have arrived unless it is truly necessary. This is for the safety of all attendees. Second, we will have to charge a (small) fee for every vehicle that arrives and stays on site. Every car that is staying onsite will need a car pass. There are regular car passes, car camping passes (to camp with your car) and RV passes. Note: There are no RV hookups on the property but you will still need an RV pass.

The new location has an incredible team of chefs on staff. This year all meals must be pre-purchased. You can purchase your meal passes separately from the time you purchase your event ticket, but they must be purchased in advance. We will have other snack/food vendors available on the grounds as well. (yes, you can bring your own foodies & snacks)

Alcohol is strictly prohibited on the property. If you bring alcohol, we will have to ask you to leave for the safety and comfort of all attendees.

Awesome! We love the idea of you bunking with new and old friends! This year, you can actually select a specific cabin spot. It’s as easy as booking concert seats or picking seats on a flight. You and your friends can say, “Let’s all grab spots in Cabin X,” and make it happen!

Yes, each lodging space is co-ed, but we offer alternatives for those who prefer non-co-ed accommodations. Please email us your preferences after purchasing your ticket.

Children are welcome at the festival if you are camping, and only in cabins where everyone in the space knows you and consents to your child being there with them. Please be considerate of your environment, particularly during quiet activities such as meditation workshops. Ensure your child accompanies you at all times, as some workshops contain adult content and are not suitable for those under 18. This helps maintain a suitable atmosphere for all attendees and allows for open discussion in more adult-themed workshops.

All cabins have their own bathrooms with showers. Some are completely private while others are semi-private (meaning they may be connected to another cabin). There’s a block of cabins (Moonstone Ridge Cabins) that have many public bathrooms you can use. These are the ONLY showers for campers, but there are plenty of them. And there are more restrooms on the grounds. Also, all water spigots offer delicious, safe, drinkable water throughout the venue.

Here is a link to a google form with a list of suggested items & links. Though do NOT worry. Whenever someone forgets something at AP, we always find someone willing to share :) This list is also linked on the main page of the google schedule.

No WiFi, but many of you will still have standard LTE or 5G connection. This event is a good chance to disconnect, but if you need to check in or check your Anahata's App, you’ll have signal.

Legend has it that Chessie, the Chesapeake Bay’s very own sea monster, has made our lake her home. Between her mysterious presence and a rather feisty snapping turtles that might think your toes are a tasty treat, swimming in the lake is off-limits. So, for your safety—and to avoid becoming Chessie's next spooky tale—please keep out of the water.

No, cabins do not have refrigerators. You are welcome to bring coolers and we will have ice available onsite.

Individual campfires are not allowed at the campsite. However, we provide communal fires each night that are available for everyone to enjoy.

Use good judgment. Anything overly sexual or not suitable for a PG-13 crowd should stay private.
