Camp Punksylvania to Take Place September 1-3 in Scranton

(SCRANTON, PA) -- Music, games, camping and more are coming to the Circle Drive-In Theater in Scranton, Pennsylvania this September. Camp Punksylvania, which is in its 3rd year, is back and bigger than ever with acts such as The Suicide Machines, Bad Cop Bad Cop, A Wilhelm Scream and with many others rounding out a hard hitting and exciting line-up.

The all-ages event will take place September 1-3 and tickets are on sale now at Camppunksylvania.com.

“We just sold out of our VIP and Side Stage passes, but still have GA weekend and single day passes available” says one of Camp Punksylvania’s directors, Laura Rose, “We’ve never had acts this big before, and on top of that we’re improving every experience based on feedback we’ve gotten from campers the past two years.”

Veronica De Hart, another director adds “Camp is so much more than just music. We have a giant scavenger hunt, dodgeball tournaments, a campfire stage where you can roast marshmallows with your favorite bands, and so much more. It’s basically a big family reunion, with all your favorite people (and bands!) in one place.”

New Jersey acts scheduled to play the festival include Mikey Erg, The Chemical Imbalance, and Doc Rotten.
