GENERAL INFO
Welcome Juggalos to the 20th Annual Soopa Gathering of the Juggalos! Peep out all the info below so you know
what’s crackin!
SHIMMER FOREST
This year’s GOTJ is being held on a 400-acre fenced-in outdoor music venue known as Shimmer Forest, with an
address of 99 Moore Lane, Springville IN, 47462. It is owned and operated by a super cool group of ninjas who are
excited to bring our event to their home, and for that alone they deserve our respect. There is enough space at
Shimmer Forest to allow everyone to camp directly on the grounds (most of which is beneath the shade of trees) for
a truly 24-hour experience.
GOTJ TICKET/WRISTBAND
The GOTJ wristband that you purchased or received when you presented your GOTJ ticket at the Ticket Office
is not to be removed at any time and is your official pass into and out of Shimmer Forest (you may come and go as
you please). It is good for the entire duration of the GOTJ, starting Wednesday July 31st (at 8 a.m.) until Sunday
August 4th (at Noon). Anyone found inside the venue without a GOTJ wristband will be immediately escorted off the
property. If you should lose your GOTJ wristband, you should report immediately to the Box Office. This wristband
grants you access to all concerts, wrestling events, comedian shows, parties, sideshows, competitions, carnival rides,
seminars, autograph signings, and much more, at no additional expense to you.
VEHICLE Passes
No vehicles are allowed inside Shimmer Forest (except for in the parking lot) unless they have the appropriate
sticker pass stuck to the driver side windshield (Car, RV/Trailer, or Big Balla Campsite). These may be obtained by
presenting the appropriate ticket (Car, RV/Trailer, or Big Balla Campsite) you purchased online once you arrive or by
purchasing one directly at the Ticket Office. These sticker passes allow you to park your vehicle at your campsite,
and once there, it must remain until the Gathering ends. This will be strongly enforced to ensure the safety of all
our ninjas.
Car Passes apply to vehicles ranging in size from motorcycles to full-sized vans that are not towing trailers. RV/
Trailer Passes apply to any vehicle bigger than a full-sized van (no 18 wheelers) or any vehicle towing a trailer. Big
Balla Campsite Passes apply to any vehicle RV size or smaller, along with whatever they are towing. All vehicle passes
are good for the entire duration of the GOTJ starting Wednesday July 31st (at 8am) until Sunday August 4th (at
noon).
PAVILION RENTAL
Located throughout Shimmer Forest are 20’ x 40’ roofed Pavilions. Most of them are being used for official event
purposes, but a few of them have been reserved online prior to the GOTJ. If you rented a Pavilion online, the
certificate that you received in the mail is your proof that you have rented that Pavilion. When you arrive, your
Pavilion will be wrapped in caution tape with a notice that it was rented. Simple remove the tape and you can set up.
Pavilion rentals are good for the entire duration of the GOTJ starting Wednesday July 31st (at 8 a.m.) until Sunday
August 4th (at Noon). Pavilions are bare, do not include power, and may not be used for vending.
• Meet and greet with all the Psychopathic artists (ABK, Big Hoodoo, DJ Clay, Insane Clown Posse, Lyte, Ouija, Rude
Boy, Natalie the Ring Girl, Jumpsteady, as well as a bunch of other fresh ninjas) in the backstage area of the
Soopa Stage for autograph and photo opportunities all in one setting.
• All-you-can-eat buffet
• Gift bag containing the following limited-edition collectors’ items: GOTJ 20 VIP laminated pass, Flip the Rat
Amulet (full color), and a Psychopathic flag.
• The opportunity to stand on the side of the stage to watch the first artist of the Gathering perform.
• The privilege of returning on Saturday night of the Gathering to be able to participate in the Faygo Armageddon
during the climax of ICP’s set on the Soopa Stage!
Once you arrive on the Gathering grounds with your ticket, you will be able to pick up the items listed above at
the Box Office. You will need to do this before you head backstage, so that the staff can process your ticket. You
will then be instructed to gather on the right side of the Soopa Stage at 5:45 pm on 1 August 2019, where you will
then be escorted backstage. Keep in mind that you will still need to purchase a GOTJ ticket in order to get into the
grounds.
PARKING
There is a 20-acre field located near the front entrance to Shimmer Forest where you may park your vehicle for
free. Keep in mind there is no camping allowed in the parking area! Due to fire codes, any campsites set up in the
parking lot will be moved (go to the Info Tent for help locating your stuff if this happens to you).
CAMPING
Once you enter Shimmer Forest with your GOTJ wristband you are free to camp in any of the designated camping
areas on a first come first serve basis. These locations will be clearly marked on the GOTJ map of Shimmer Forest,
which is located on the back of this GOTJ program. Keep in mind that the Gathering staff reserve the right to
move any tent, vehicle, or campfire, to handle disputes. Or, if they are located on a road, or an unofficial camping
area. There are some key rules that everyone must follow when camping:
• There is no camping in the Parking Lot or in the field directly in front of the Soopa and Shazam stages.
• All tents and vehicles must be 15 feet from any other tent, vehicle, or campfire in all directions.
• Do not camp in-between any row of metal poles, as these mark fire lanes.
• Make sure to safely contain, maintain, and extinguish all campfires.
• All vehicles at a campsite must have an appropriate vehicle sticker pass.
• Please be respectful of your neighbors, especially when it comes to excessive noise at night.
TEAR DOWN
After the four full days of flavor, it will be time to head out. Sunday (4 Aug 2019) is the official tear-down day
when everyone will be expected to be cleared out of Shimmer Forest and the parking lot by noon.

the debut GOTJ performance of our very own Juggalette Burlesque troupe. Ladies

only spectacles that will amaze, but also horrors of the senses that will cause your skin
to crawl. Here you shall see self-mutilation, skin piercing, fire eating, body burns, skin
suspension, immolation…and that’s only during the introductions!
