The Trips festival was one the most significant events in psychedelic history. This famous three day event that kicked of 1966 was held at Longshoreman’s Hall in San Francisco. The event was essentially an Acid Test that was slightly more organized. All of the early players were present. The Grateful Dead and the pranksters were in their full glory and Bill Graham was enlisted to bring some sort of order to the chaos. Within a few weeks he had leased the Fillmore…..the rest is history.This extremely rare flyer for the event is one of the hardest pieces of Trips festival ephemera to obtain.
