It’s official. The Nateva Music & Camping Festival will return this summer.

But instead of the July 4th weekend, this year’s festival will be Aug. 5-7 at the Oxford Fairgrounds in Oxford. The lineup will be announced later, said Frank Chandler, festival founder.

Nateva is offering early-bird tickets to the festival for $157, plus fees. They can be purchased online at www.natevafestival.com

In addition to a different weekend, this year’s festival will include more on-site camping than last year, and Chandler has lowered ticket prices for those who buy early. Last year, the early-bird tickets cost $179.

“The Oxford Fairgrounds has everything Nateva requires, and now with thousands of additional camping sites added, we can consolidate more of our festival community to one location. Also, we listened to what our community had to say about Nateva and we are making this year’s experience less expensive, which we hope everyone will appreciate,” Chandler said in a press release.
