ABOUT LEVITATION

Founded in 2008 as Austin Psych Fest by members of The Black Angels and friends, the independent event sparked a movement, inspiring the creation of similar events across the globe. Austin Psych Fest was renamed LEVITATION in honor of Austin’s psychedelic rock pioneers The 13th Floor Elevators, who reunited and performed at LEVITATION 2015 for the band’s 50th anniversary. The event has stayed true to its original mission - to be a hub for the psych rock scene - while expanding into the worlds of metal, electronic music, punk, and all manner of independent and underground music.

For over a decade, LEVITATION has delivered lineups that span psych, dream pop, punk, indie, metal, darkwave and electronic music – helping carry the spirit of 1960’s sonic experimentation into modern times. It’s a beloved record collection manifested into a 4 day weekend, with lineups that span continents and generations: a heady amalgamation of vintage gear, immersive light shows and visuals, buzzing amps, moody synths, good vibes and good times in Austin, Texas. We are honored to host an amazing community artists and fans each year.

LEVITATION returns for Halloween weekend - OCT 31-NOV 3, 2024.

AUSTIN PSYCH FEST

APF returned in April 2023 celebrating its 15 year anniversary with a 3 day throwback to the original multi-stage, single venue format. Austin Psych Fest honors the city’s 1960s psychedelic rock heritage and brings it into the here and now - bringing tripped-out sounds to an appropriately laid-back South Austin setting.

APF is here to stay, taking over The Far Out Lounge the weekend of APRIL 26-28, 2024.
