EQUIFUNK was conceived in 2008 and has grown tremendously in just a few short years. The intimate music festival is held annually in late August at Camps Equinunk and Blue Ridge in Pennsylvania's Pocono Mountains. Bands and DJs play at the lakeside pool party during the day and perform throughout the night at the camp's state of the art "E-rena." The all-inclusive weekend event pass guarantees access to all live music, meals, drinks, use of all facilities and comfortable lodging accommodations in the camp's newly renovated cabins. Equifunk does not accept cash or credit anywhere on campus during festival weekend, just a desire to bring the funk.
