Games, wellness, and enjoying life to the fullest at Dirtybird Campout x Northern Nights
This festival is not your average summer camp. The Games Programming is a major part of the Dirtybird Campout tradition. It combines fun, creativity, and friendly competition. Attendees will actively participate in activities and have a chance to win bragging rights.
The Games Programming will take place in four lively zones. Participants can enjoy classic Dirtybird games and surprises at the Field, variety shows and contests at the Giving Tree Art Car, drag performances at the Grove, and fun by the River. Some popular activities include the River Race, Egg Toss, Dodgeball, Speed Walking, Tug O’ War, Sac Race, and Iron Bird. Other unique events include Lap Dance For Your Life, The Great Bingo Revival, Lovebirds Dating Show, Dirtybird Spelling Bee, Dirtybird Talent Show, Rollin’ Competition, and Highdeas and Beer Pong.
Also featured is a Wellness program, which offers a chance to recharge and reconnect. The program includes a mix of movement, mindfulness, and healing. Attendees can join energizing sessions like Snack Time Pilates and Street Dance Concepts or calming experiences like Yoga in Flow Friday, Awaken Breathwork, and meditation workshops. They can also learn self-massage techniques and experience bodywork such as massage, cupping, acupuncture, Gua Sha, and more.
