“Caravan” is the name given to four multi-day festivals where the Dave Matthews Band will perform complete sets each evening, making the events the only place you can see DMB in the U.S. this year.

The first Caravan takes place at Bader Field in Atlantic City June 24-26. In addition to DMB, the weekend in New Jersey will feature a festival-size lineup including David Gray, Ray Lamontagne, The Flaming Lips, O.A.R., Damian Marley, Bassnectar, Dr. Dog, Amos Lee, Thievery Corporation, Michael Franti, Warren Haynes Band, Grace Potter & The Nocturnals, Guster, Lotus, Rebelution and Bobby Long. Daily lineups have yet to be announced.

There will also be a few “special” moments, such as DMB members Carter Beauford and Stefan Lessard performing separately from the band and Dave Matthews hooking up with Tim Reynolds to deliver an acoustic set.
