Experience the Music, Embrace the Community
Warped Wolf '25 is more than just a music festival. It's a place to celebrate diversity, acceptance, and the transformative power of art. With over 25 bands representing a wide array of genres, there's something for everyone. Enjoy delicious eats from local food trucks and tents, browse unique crafts from a dozen or more retail vendors each day, and connect with impactful local organizations which have previously included Punk Rock Saves Lives, Bee The Vibe, Keep The Party Safe, NoCoSafeSpace, and more!
Inclusivity at the Heart
Lunar Lux® Music & Arts Festival, a Colorado non-profit, is committed to the creation of a safe and welcoming space for LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC communities. The woman and LGBTQIA+ owned and operated festival is a shining example of the power of inclusion and the beauty of a diversified and supportive community, and has benefitted marginalized communities in many ways since its 2023 inception.
Special Thanks
The festival extends a heartfelt thank you to Lodo Drum Guy for providing and maintaining a drum set for artists to use, Großen Bart Brewery for offering their space for the event, Yellow Scene Magazine for promotional assistance, and all of our fans for helping spread the word!
This will likely be the only year the fest is free to attend!
While no cover is necessary, a donation of $20 or more each day is recommended. ALL donations, vendor fees, and sponsorships this year will go directly to Lunar Lux® Music & Arts Festival, which will first cover residual debts from last year's festival at the organization's inception, and will then go towards future events, community support, and supplies for those in need of Narcan, food, mental health assistance, shelter, and more. At this time, the organization has ZERO staff on payroll, and ALL profit made goes DIRECTLY to marginalized communities, especially those with involvement in art and music, as well as events to incubate more love and support for those who simply don't receive enough. Every other event hosted by the organization this year has been and will continue to be free to attend, with all other 2025 event donations going 100% to performing artists. Unless it is offered, we run our own lights, sound, media, and marketing to ensure our artists get as much as they can. We are not in this game to become rich as an organization, we are in it to make our fans rich with both love and as much financial support as we are able to provide.

About Lunar Lux® Music & Arts Festival
Lunar Lux® Music & Arts Festival was founded on December 29th of 2023, with the intention of bringing communities together via the power of music and art. LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, and female identifying individuals are embarrassingly underrepresented and disrespected in the music industry, and the organization intends to change not only that, but the lives of those in marginalized communities and their families. When festivals occur, artists NEVER pay to play, are not required to make ticket sales, and are guaranteed to be able to keep 100% of merchandise sales.
Lunar Lux® Music & Arts Festival originally began in the small Florida town of Vero Beach in March of 2023 when a bar owner asked founder Luna Rose Wolf if she booked bands. Having grown a huge interest in doing so while working as a professional concert photographer, she said “No, but I will.”
Later that week, she contacted the owner of local pool hall Pockets Billiards & Bites to see if they would like to host a couple of bands, and owner Gary McKinnond was honored to give LunaFest ’23 a place to call home. Florida bands ¡Fuákata!, Paging Mr Herman, and Off The Rails were all aboard. (See what I did there?)
Within days, more bands were interested in joining the lineup, and the event grew into a three day festival with forty bands. It didn’t stop there. Finishing as a 4 day festival with food trucks, vendors, and over 60 different bands, LunaFest ’23 literally made history by breaking local records for the most bands to attend an event.
News travelled rapidly, and those who didn’t hear of the event or weren’t able to attend expressed their disappointment of missing out when hearing the stories from festival attendees. This led to the creation of LunaFest ’24, which was originally set to take place in March but was cancelled due to major changes in Luna’s life including moving out of state to Colorado due to the transphobic nature of Florida causing the loss of her medications, her job, and nearly her life.
Many still begged her to bring back the festival, and once she settled down in Colorado she did exactly that. Taking place from April 22nd until the early morning hours of April 29th, LunaFest came back, and made Boulder history with bands from several states, including performers from LunaFest ’23 as well as international acts.
Starting this year, LunaFest will be under the name Warped Wolf to prevent confusion with the popular film festival that used the previous name, and the new name hints at the involvement of craft beer at future events, another of Luna's passions.
