NEON RetroFest

Directions Website

NEON RetroFest Superlative waves and aesthetic entertainment. Evolving beyond nostalgia to design a retro paradise that transcends memory and expectation. This is NEON.

NEON is a Retrofuturism love letter to late 20th Century entertainment--a new event inspired by the worlds and sounds we grew up with: flickering neon, killer robots, rain-soaked pavement, eternal sunsets, cyberpunk skylines, obsolete technology, and relentless midnight drives. A cutting-edge synthwave music festival drives the heartbeat of three days and nights of retro immersion, including a massive themed video arcade, console gaming time capsule, iconic guests and panelists, and above all, a chance to experience the future as imagined by the past without having to invent a time machine.

Today is a sad day. Below, Grant Garvin shares some words on KAVINSKY✨’s untimely passing. RIP to an absolute legend.

“Ironically he was one of the very few real ones in the scene, despite fighting like hell to never be a part of it. I openly disagreed with him for years on not wanting to be defined by the genre, until I saw first hand exactly what he was trying to avoid.
︀︀
︀︀He got a lot of s**t for that, and didn’t care. All while inspiring countless people to make music than he’d ever take credit for.
︀︀
︀︀Rest easy Kavinsky. You were right, it was just French Touch all along. 🇫🇷”

On this day when the Sun is at its zenith, we are pleased to announce that NEON is being reborn as a nonprofit, which suits our mission, methods, and goals much better (and which it really should have been all along). Very soon you will be able to visit NEON Retro Group's new website and see everything we're working on, because this isn't just a festival; it's a way of life. 🌴🌊🌞🦩

See you soon. 😎🌅
