Back to festy basics
No Barriers. No Limits
No b.s.
Big Shrimp is the only
B.S. we tolerate
This year, 2026, the young Connecticut Jam-Rockers, Big Shrimp will take a major leap and launch the inaugural Camp Scampi set to take place at Moe Town Music Venue in Addison, NY on August 28th & 29th, in coordination with Sage Entertainment & Moe Town.
Camp Scampi brings together three stages of live music featuring a diverse lineup on nationally touring talent across jam, EDM, bluegrass, folk, and beyond, while also celebrating the hardworking regional and local artists. In addition to two nights and four sets of Big Shrimp, the weekend also includes performances by Spafford, Noetika, Space Bacon, Jimkata, and many more. And yes—music rolls until 2am (or later) every night.
Camp Scampi is a one of its kind. In collaboration with the beloved Phish fan community You Enjoy MyFood, we’re serving up unique, interactive food programming to make sure there is truly never a dull moment, even when you need a break from the music.
Our mission, It’s As Shrimple As That: Bring festivals back to what made them special in the first place—community, companionship, and the power of live music. No unnecessary barriers. No cash-grab culture. Just a shared space where people can unplug, come together, and be part of something real.
No VIP tiers here—because at Camp Scampi, everyone is a Very Important Prawn Star.
Camp Scampi is a two-day affordable event, and we believe a festival in 2026 can be done like it was in 1996 (yes, before we were born), and bring it back to the way it used to feel: free-spirited, affordable, and built around genuine human connection. It’s Big Shrimp’s gigantic end of Summer party, and EVERYONE is invited!
This is Camp Scampi.
