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 – doing our best to help carry the spirit of 1960’s sonic experimentation into modern times. We are honored to host an amazing community artists and fans each year.

LEVITATION returns this Fall - SEPT 25-28, 2025.

AUSTIN PSYCH FEST

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 MAY 8-10, 2026.
