The third annual The Mad Tea Party Jam, presented by Appalachian Jamwich, takes place June 19-22 in Hedgesville, WV. The music and arts festival will be headlined by Papadosio, two nights of The Werks, two nights of Dopapod, Pigeons Playing Ping Pong, The Mantras and more.The event will host multiple stages, an electronic dance tent, and late night music to 5AM and later. The arts will also be a prevalent component to the experience and patrons can enjoy looking through a transformative art gallery, exploring art installations, and watching live art being created before their eyes at the main stage. The optical delights don't end there, because each night the crowd will transform into outlandish characters for our nightly costume contests and Friday night's Futuristic Burlesque Fashion Show. Fire performers will be lighting up the night sky, hoop troupe performers will make LED lights melt before your eyes, and aerial performers will hang gracefully from the stage. Workshops teaching how to hoop, do yoga, play guitar and more will also be available to enhance your experience at the festival.The Mad Tea Party Jam takes place on beautiful land with two ponds, a stream and swimming hole.
