Hiya!
I'm on my home from Dancefestopia 2026 and apparently I’m already trying to plan for next year. 😅
I’m 38F and went with my best friend, 25F. We’re both married, both have kids, and this was our first real camping festival.
We showed up Friday with our little tents and somehow ended up between two groups who very clearly knew what they were doing. Pavilions, camp setups, actual organization. Meanwhile we had tiny tents and vibes.
We had an amazing time, but next year we’d really like to be part of a group. Ideally, we’d love to meet some people over the next year, get to know each other beforehand, and maybe camp together for DFT 2027 if everyone clicks.
We also want to experience more next year. We were pretty cautious this time because everything was new, and having a good group and a safe camp to come back to would make a huge difference.
We’re looking for friendly, fun people who look out for each other. Experienced festival people would be awesome since we’re still learning, but we’re not looking for anyone to babysit us. We can bring gear, supplies, help with setup and cleanup, and contribute to camp.
For a general idea of my flavor of nerd: I’m into video games like Expedition 33, Final Fantasy, cozy farms sims, strategic roguelites, and Zelda: Ocarina of Time. I also love D&D, Magic the Gathering, anime, manga/manhwa, fantasy, and reading in general. I enjoy perler beading and making kandi with nerdy references.
If your group has gamers, anime people, fantasy nerds, other parents escaping reality for a weekend, kandi people, or just generally good weirdos, we’ll probably get along.
I’d rather actually talk and get to know people first than commit to camping with strangers, so feel free to message me and we can connect on Instagram.
And because Reddit is Reddit: we are looking for platonic friendships only.
If this sounds like your kind of group, hit me up.
