Today, Aug. 26, Daniel Donato took to his social channels to officially announce his third annual Camp Cosmic event. Returning to Pelham, Tenn.’s beloved The Caverns on May 8 and 9, 2026, Donato’s third event in the subterranean space will follow the festival-esque program of last year’s presentation, with four sets from the headlining act alongside additional artists still to be revealed.
“Music is a vessel to serve, build, and illuminate the unifying magic of Community,” Donato shared. “The Cosmic Country community is the highest-frequency group of individuals that I could ever imagine to be a part of, and Camp Cosmic celebrates this phenomenon. All weekend long, we will commune with family, rejoice in music, and dance life’s shadows away, way down south in sunny Tennessee for Camp Cosmic year three!”
At the second annual Camp Cosmic event in April, Donato’s two electrifying shows with his rapidly rising Cosmic Country band in the depths of The Caverns were framed by opening sets from Mountain Grass Unit and late-night campground sets from Water Tower, featuring banjo ace Willow Osborne. Those campground sets were open jams, and once again, attendees are encouraged to bring their instruments and contribute to the Cosmic Circle; fans equipped and ready to pick last year were treated to surprise campground sets with Donato and company.
Tickets for Camp Cosmic 2026 will go on sale this Thursday, Aug. 28 at 10 a.m. CT. Secure yours at TheCaverns.com.
