The festival takes place at the famed Double J Ranch in Rothbury, Michigan from June 28 to July 1. After two years of Rothbury festivals, the event was canceled in 2010 before SCI revitalized it last year with an eclectic lineup that featured the jam mainstays playing each night along with the biggest names in electronic music.

Tickets are on sale now for $229.00 plus fees.  For more information on Electric Forest, visit the festival's official website. For complete lineups, ticketing information and analysis of all your favorite festivals, check out our 2012 Festival Guide.
