Hulaween has just revealed its highly-anticipated festival theme and set times for the 11th annual edition taking place from Thursday, October 24 – Sunday, October 27, 2024, at Spirit of Suwannee Music Park in Live Oak, Florida. 

The Halloween festival has become one of the country’s leading multi-genre camping events with its forward-thinking lineups and immersive, experiential elements. Over its past 10 editions, Hulaween’s festival theme has become a coveted part of its identity, encouraging inclusive creative expression with the Halloween spirit in mind. The String Cheese Incident typically dedicates one of their multiple Hulaween sets to the theme each year and invites attendees to use their imagination to create inspired costumes. In 2023, Hulaween featured the “Full Moon Family Reunion” and 2022 hosted the “Suwannee Horror Disco Show”.

This year, Hulaween’s official costume theme will be “Weir’d Science” to celebrate Bobby Weir’s festival debut with The String Cheese Incident on Sunday, October 27. The magical weekend will invite fans to dress in anything from mad scientists to extraterrestrial creatures. Welcoming fans to “embrace the wild, the Weir’d, and the wonderful,” the festival’s 11th edition will host the supernatural in the heart of Spirit Lake. 

Hulaween 2024 will make history by hosting the world debut of The Bobby Weir Incident, with Grateful Dead founding member Bobby Weir and veteran festival ringleaders The String Cheese Incident performing together for the first – and perhaps the last time, as there are no future dates planned for this epic collaboration and crossover affair. The Bobby Weir Incident will play two consecutive sets to close out the festival on Sunday, mesmerizing attendees with galvanizing renditions of 3 hours worth of Grateful Dead classics.
