✨ Step into the story at Calan Mai 2026 ✨
Three days of books, bands, and boundless imagination await you at Jackpot Ranch in Camp Verde, Arizona. From May 29 to 31, the grounds will transform into a world of music, firelight, storytelling, and community. Wander through a bustling vendor marketplace, meet authors and artisans, dance to live performances, savor food trucks and craft drinks, and discover side quests that will test your wit and spark your sense of adventure.
🌌 Friday opens with a mystical electronic light show that pays tribute to the fantasy stories that shaped us.
🔥 Saturday ignites with a dark romance fire performance that is daring, sultry, and unforgettable.
🎭 Sunday closes with a grand finale filled with music, dance, and enchantment under the stars.
For those who want to stay close to the magic, on-site camping and RV spots are available in limited supply. VIP guests can enjoy glamping in well-appointed bell tents, exclusive mixers, priority access to shows and quests, free showers, a temperature-controlled lounge, and much more.
🎟 Early Bird Tickets go on sale October 11 at 10 AM (9 AM for subscribers). Supplies are limited and once they are gone, they are gone.
Every ticket supports The Book Blossom Foundation, our nonprofit dedicated to bringing books and literacy resources to women and children in need.
This is more than a festival. It is a story you get to live.
Musical Acts Announced SOON!
