It was the sixth of seven weekend-long festivals hosted by the rock band Phish. The event took place on August 2 and 3, 2003, at the Loring Air Force Base in Limestone, Maine, just miles from the Canadian border. 70,000 people attended, resulting in one of the largest Phish concerts ever. PBS was on hand to make a documentary of the experience.

Phish was the only band at the event, performing seven sets of music over two nights, including a late night set on top of the air traffic control tower at 2:30 AM after the first night's concert. Fans camped out onsite in tents, creating community of fans that became the largest city in Maine over the weekend.
