About Nelson Ledges Quarry Park

Nestled on about 250 acres in Garrettsville, Nelson Ledges Quarry Park (NLQP) is a premier outdoor destination for music lovers, campers, hikers, and festival goers. Known for its historic Grateful Fest lineage and its vibrant SummerDance weekends, NLQP hosts 10+ events each year across multiple festival grounds and a quarry lake surrounded by natural beauty. Whether you’re here for a weekend camping getaway or a day of live music, NLQP is built for outdoor recreation, exploration, and community.

Plan ahead with flexible seating styles. NLQP does not publish a fixed seating chart; events use general-admission or festival-stage layouts with variable configurations. Expect large, open viewing areas and a dynamic festival atmosphere designed for crowd energy and social space.

Getting there is straightforward by car, as NLQP is a car-accessible venue located at 12001 Nelson Ledge Rd, Garrettsville, OH 44231. Parking can be limited at larger shows, and camper/RV passes are recommended to guarantee entry. There’s no dedicated public transit serving the park, so many guests coordinate private transport or rideshares. When you’re planning your visit, consider nearby accommodations in Warren and Newton Falls to balance travel time with comfort. We’ve got reliable hotel and dining partners to help you secure a convenient stay and tasty meals before or after the show.

Explore the property’s 250-acre landscape, featuring a quarry lake, a beach area, camping, hiking trails, and multiple festival grounds. Nelson Ledges Quarry Park remains active as NLQP, delivering a unique blend of live music and outdoor recreation year after year. Secure your seats with confidence through our trusted network of partners, and enjoy the experience with a straightforward, friendly approach—like having a friend on the inside.
