Wasteland Weekend is an annual festival held in Edwards, California. The event is listed as a full immersion event, with all participants required to adhere to the set theme. It has been held annually in September since 2010, except for 2020, when the event was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2019, the 10th-anniversary edition of Wasteland Weekend was held from September 25 to September 29.

The festival includes post-apocalyptic themed costumes, campsites and vehicles, live bands and DJs, fire, burlesque and other performers, and Jugger matches.

In addition to the official schedule, there are a ton of unofficial, community, and tribe-created events that go on at Wasteland. Check out the Community Unofficial Event Schedule, which will be continually updated getting closer to the event.

(We do not maintain, edit, or officially endorse anything on that schedule, but there’s definitely some great stuff in there!)



Quests/ LARP/ Lore/ Immersion Missions


Wasteland Weekend is an immersive event, but it is not a full LARP event (Live Action Role Playing). It is absolutely acceptable to come out to Wasteland and simply enjoy yourself AS yourself and not engage in any of the role playing, game, mission aspects (as long as you’re always dressed in-theme, of course). But for those who like to dive in a bit deeper, there are plenty of ways to make yourself feel even more like you’re inside a post-apocalyptic movie.
Plenty of tribe camps (especially those inside the theme zone and inside the gates of Wasteland City) offer quests and interactive adventures throughout the event. For example, the Trading Outpost 364 Trade route offers new and old Wastelanders alike a unique way to experience the event. Walk a trade route to designated camps ready to barter, or help protect a merchant from raiders as a hired guard. You can learn more at the Trading Outpost 364 page.

You can browse the unofficial event schedule for these and you can also check the event board on Main St outside of the Dauntless Express (DXC) camp.

Some tribes have long-running stories and “feuds” with other tribes that go back years and years, so even if you’re not actively participating in some of this live story-telling that goes on, you can keep your eyes open for some dramatic (and/or silly) developments and shenanigans that can happen around the city. Just always be sure that whatever Wasteland lore you’re creating doesn’t interfere with someone else’s good time, and that whoever you are interacting with won’t misunderstand what you’re up to. We’re all there to have a good time, first and foremost and the larping at Wasteland tends to be pretty light-hearted.

One of the longest running immersive LARP activities at Wasteland is a bounty hunting game you can ask Tribes about.


WASTELAND RADIO! 88.3 FM





Did you know Wasteland has had our own official radio station since the first event in 2010? And wow, HAS IT GROWN thanks to Wasteland Communication Corporation!

Be sure to tune an FM radio to 88.3 once you’re on or near the event site to add a whole other level to your post-apocalyptic immersion.
