Friday, June 12 - Monday, June 15 2009

I’m playing on SATURDAY MORNING approximately 5:00 to 6:15, time may change so check back before the party.

Update - June 10 2009 - Time slots posted and weather forecast

Sorry I’m actually a bit late on this info, main stage time slots were posted a few days ago on the isratrance forums followed up by chill dome time slots.  Also, please check the weather forecast and plan accordingly.

Update - June 4 2009 - Rideshare link posted

If you are looking for a gemini festival rideshare go to the isratrance forums. You will need to create an account there to post on the forums. I’ll update this post if I know of any more resources for rideshares to the gemini festival. If you came to this page looking for that information and you know of more resources, please add links in the comments below so that others can find out information as well.

Full Circle and The Phoenix Family, in association with Straylight Productions and Xcience, bring you Gemini 2009. Over the years Gemini has secured itself as the longest running yearly psy-trance festival on the west coast, and has built a reputation as one of the best-vibed and premiere events of its kind in North America. This year will be no different, though it will experience some organizational differences as its father and our dear friend Wichdokta takes the year off to bring another Gemini into this world. Rest assured though, this year’s gathering will maintain the exceptional standards of music, deco and most importantly vibe and intention. It is this intention, the gift of this free event to the trance community, and bringing together of talent and tribes, that truly makes this event the special one it is.

On the weekend of June 12th, we invite you to come and partake with us in Belden, CA. The venue is a literal town and is perhaps the most comfortable and beautiful venue in the states. Situated on the Feather River, the location includes a country market, a full service restaurant, a full bar, cabins, a riverside beach, swimming hole, shaded dance floor, plenty of shaded camping and frequently cleaned bathrooms with running water.

Again this is a free gathering and gift to the trance community, we just ask you come, bring your best smile and dance your ass off.

** VENUE**

The venue is literally a town to itself. Belden, CA is a small town formed at a trail head to the famed Pacific Crest hiking trail. Situated deep in the Feather River Canyon, you are surrounded by towering mountains and pines. Belden features a full service restaurant and bar, a country store, R.V. hookups, lots of shaded camping, inside restrooms with running water, a riverside beach and swimming hole, and of course one very pleasant tree covered dance floor.

Directions to Belden can be easily found by searching in any online map source.
If you can find Belden, you can’t miss Gemini

Music starts at 6:00pm Friday June 12, and ends at 5:00pm Sunday June 14.

Please carpool if possible, it makes the road trip just that much better, and fewer cars just makes things that much nicer at the venue.

Please bring all your proper camping gear, flashlights, smiles, comfortable shoes, water toys, and clothes for warm days and cool nights.

Please no pets or dogs. Animals have sensitive hearing and large scale sound systems can be quite unpleasant for them.

Please be aware (you will see plenty of evidence of this) that you are in a wild fire prone area. Please be cautious of your cigarettes, NO campfires of any kind are allowed, and any and all fire performance must first be cleared through the venue and org’s.

Please pack it in, pack it out. We will have on site garbage, but in order to not overload the dumpster, please make plans to take your trash home with you.

And one last time, this is a free event, a gift to the North American Trance community, please come and enjoy a wonderful weekend with all of us
