Psytrance raves in Europe (end of August until end of September)

Discussion/Question

I'm looking to visit mit first bigger sized rave this year and since I have lots of vacation left, (starting from the 22nd of August until end of September basically) I want to ask you for advice on where to go during that time frame. I'm from northern Germany, but I'm very open to travel further if it's worth it. And I would probably take the opportunity to travel some more afterwards or before.

Do you have any Psytrance festival/rave recommendations for Europe? I'm fairly new to this and I researched a bit but feeling very overwhelmed with the options and also don't know what is good or worth it. I will be going solo if that makes a difference.

I recommend The Shadow Of The Dark Shaman festival in Sweden. Most festivals in Northern Europe take place during July and first half of August, but this is definitely an out of the box option for you :)) Deep psy in a deep forest, can really connect you to your roots. Have a great summer my friend

Thank you for the recommendation! It doesn't have to be northern Europe. I'm more than open to fly everywhere. But yeah I noticed most festivals take place in July and the start of August and sadly I can't get vacation earlier so I have to deal with it.

The festival looks great but I was in Sweden just 4 weeks ago on vacation and as I would like to combine it with some traveling I would prefer to go somewhere else.

Still thank you a lot and great summer to you too :)

This tends to be a frequently asked question. Start out by going to public events and making friends with people with good taste. If they feel comfortable with you, then ask them about private events. https://reddit.com/r/aves/wiki/faq#wiki_2._how_can_i_find_events.3F

Psy-Fi in the Netherlands. Only had good experiences there. Not too large, not too small. Great vibes, relaxed security, and everything is organized very well. Space Safari is great too.

Ozora and Boom are on a larger scale than Psy-Fi and Space Safari, but I haven't been so I can't speak from experience, but those are supposed to be pretty amazing.
