About

That's right, we're kicking off Mosswood Meltdown weekend with an indie-rock driven pre-party at the park on July 17th. The evening will feature slacker-rock icons PAVEMENT, WEDNESDAY “one of the best indie rock bands around” (Pitchfork), and reverb-loving and cool as hell indie punks VIVIAN GIRLS. Of course, this special pre-party will be hosted by the fearless and subversive Pope of Trash, JOHN WATERS.

(Please note: This is a special event with separate ticketing from the 2026 Mosswood Meltdown festival. Tickets to the July 18-19th Mosswood Meltdown festival must be purchased separately)
