Renowned psychedelic funk/jam quartet Pigeons Playing Ping Pong is bringing their beloved music festival Domefest to ACE Adventure Resort in New River Gorge, WV on August 7-9, 2025. Known for their vibrant stage presence and genre-bending improvisational fluidity, PPPP is set to play an array of sets alongside an eclectic lineup of bands to be announced soon. A limited allotment of blind faith tickets are available for purchase today.

Founded by Pigeons Playing Ping Pong’s lead guitarist Jeremy Schon in 2010, Domefest has since blossomed into an annual pilgrimage for the band’s devoted fanbase, affectionately known as “The Flock.” Across its many iterations, the festival has played host to top-notch touring acts such as Goose, Lotus, and so many others, and has drawn thousands of fans to its past locations in Ohio, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, and Maryland. Following a one-year hiatus in 2024, Domefest announced its new home at ACE Adventure Resort, a gorgeous 1,500-acre outdoor adventure paradise in the heart of New River Gorge National Park in West Virginia.

“We’re so excited to bring Domefest back to wild and wonderful West Virginia, and ACE Adventure Resort is the perfect new home for our annual celebration,” said Schon. “We’ve always loved ACE. It has all the features and flexibility that we look for in a festival ground, plus a waterpark, killer outdoor activities, and comfortable accommodations. Top to bottom, this is already shaping up to be the best Domefest yet.”

This resort location is an adventurer and music-lover’s dream destination, with a variety of outdoor activities including world-class whitewater rafting, ziplining, mountain biking, hiking, and more. Complete with a beautiful waterpark lake full of waterslides, trampolines, and huge inflatables, ACE Adventure Resort offers mountaintop campsites, nice cabins, bathrooms and showers, a bar and restaurant, and multiple stages for live music all day and late into the night.

Blind faith tickets are on sale now via ACE Adventure Resort. Fans can use promo code ‘BLINDPIGEON25’ to save $25 off the early bird rate for general admission and VIP tickets.
