Camp Starlight, Pennsylvania USA
May 28th – May 31st, 2027
Join The Cat Empire as they host their very first summer camp experience at the beautiful Camp Starlight – just two and a half hours from New York City.
What’s Included?
| A 4-day, 3-night stay in comfortable, rustic accommodation, shared with The Cat Empire. |
| All meals are covered — breakfast, lunch, and dinner — plus pre-dinner happy hours with both alcoholic and non-alcoholic options. |
| Days are open and active if you want them to be: yoga in the morning, swims and lake time, paddling, or a game of pickleball, tennis, volleyball, or kickball. There’s space too for slower things — arts and crafts, wandering, or just lying in the sun. |
| As it winds down, it all gathers — singing around the campfire, s’mores, and music drifting into the night. |
| And throughout the weekend, live performances from The Cat Empire, including a Saturday night concert by the lake. |
Music
This isn’t a classic music festival – it’s a few days built around The Cat Empire’s music, with space to be part of it all.
Saturday night lands as the big one: a full Cat Empire show at the lakeside amphitheatre – all the energy, horns, rhythm, and movement you’d expect, under the open sky. Bermuda Search Party are on board as main support and more special guests will be announced soon.
Across the rest of the weekend, things stay looser. Campfire jams, stripped-back acoustic sets, workshops, songs that start somewhere and end up somewhere else. You’re welcome to bring an instrument and jump in when it feels right.
It’s less about watching from a distance, more about being in it – music that moves around, shows up in unexpected places, and keeps going long after the stage lights are off.
Accomodation
Camp Starlight offers a range of accommodation options to suit groups of all sizes.
Guests can stay in communal lakeside cabins equipped with electricity, hot water, bathrooms, and showers, or choose from houses, cottages, and private rooms for a bit more space. All accommodation includes beds, linens, pillows, and towels.
Options are flexible – from shared cabins to private spaces for individuals or groups. You can request your accommodation preferences on the ticketing page.
Located in Starlight, Pennsylvania, around 150 miles northwest of New York City, Camp Starlight spans 385 acres of peaceful countryside, with two spring-fed lakes and plenty of on-site parking.
Food & Beverage
Meals are shared and unhurried — long tables, open air, passing plates, settling in.
Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are all included, built around fresh, quality ingredients and simple, generous cooking. Friday night gathers around a BBQ, and Saturday stretches into a long-table, farm-style dinner outdoors.
Mornings start with coffee and pastries for early risers. Before dinner, there’s a happy hour with drinks and small bites. Later on, it’s campfires and s’mores.
Dietary needs are easy to accommodate – just let the team know when you book.
Activities
Swim in the lake, take a boat out, or drift between the pool and the shoreline. Get a game going – tennis, pickleball, volleyball, basketball, kickball, or just wander off on a walk (see if you can catch Danny on his morning runs).
There’s space for quieter things too: arts and crafts, a stretch, a slow morning, an afternoon that doesn’t need a plan. You’ll find Ollie at the piano most of the day.
Nothing’s locked in. You can fill the day or leave it open.
And you’ll certainly be crossing paths with Felix and the rest of The Cat Empire band and crew throughout the day as they host workshops, games and performances throughout the weekend.
