The music
If you want to play or DJ, please reach out. This is amateur-friendly.
What this is
The pavement
runs out. The
party starts.
No Pave Rave is just an excuse for great people to dance all night somewhere wild in Montana. Great humans roll up to the riverside in rafts, gravel bikes and 4x4s. No stages, no wristbands — just beats, burgers, dancing and camping. Then you wake up, get back on your raft, bike or 4x4, and we leave it better than we found it.

The land
Off the grid near Glacier National Park, 1–2 hours from civilization. You'll get details after you RSVP.
03
Leave no trace
There's no crew. The night only happens because everyone carries it in, sets it up, and packs every scrap back out. We leave it better than we found it.
04
Invite only
We're keeping it smallish — friends and friends of friends. You were asked for a reason. Bring good humans, not a crowd, and please make sure they RSVP.
No pay
It's a gift economy
No tickets, no bartenders, no tips. This is 100% free. We just want you and your incredible energy.
Please bring something to share with others. That could be food, a bracelet, a lollipop, refreshments, or a fun bit of art for others to enjoy. Zero requirements here, but the point is to show up, help out, be creative and have fun.

Questions
FAQ
What does it cost?
Nothing. There's no ticket and nothing for sale on the land. It's a gift economy — come ready to give and ready to take care of yourself.
Where is it?
Off the grid near Glacier National Park, 1–2 hours from civilization. The exact spot, directions, and timing go to confirmed guests by text or email before the night.
Can I bring people?
It's invite-only and small on purpose — friends and friends of friends. If you want to bring someone, ask first and make sure they RSVP.
Is it 21+?
Yes. We love our kids, but we'll leave them on the grid for this one.
What do I bring?
Everything you need to take care of yourself for a night outdoors — water, food, warm layers, a headlamp, a safe way home — plus something to give. A full rundown goes out with the location.
Is there a bar, food, or vendors?
No. Nobody is selling anything. Whatever's there was gifted by someone like you — so bring enough for yourself, and extra to share.
What's the rafting thing?
Some folks make a day of it on the river beforehand. There's a spot to flag your interest when you RSVP, and we'll loop you in.
When does it start and end?
Friday, June 26, 2026, running into the next morning. Exact timing comes with the location for confirmed guests.
Leave no trace — for real?
For real. Pack out everything you bring in, including the small stuff. We leave the land better than we found it. No pave, no trace.
