Camp Flog Gnaw Carnival (formerly known as the OFWGKTA Carnival or Odd Future carnival) is an annual American music festival and carnival curated by Tyler, the Creator and has been held annually since its inception in the fall of 2012, except from 2020 to 2022 (due to the COVID-19 pandemic). [1] [2] The camp's name is an anagram of "Wolf Gang" and also spells "Golf Wang" in reverse. It features a variety of carnival games and rides (those of which include a massive Ferris Wheel), food vendors, and a myriad of notable artists. Prior to 2016, the festival had only been held for one day. It is always held on a weekend. There is no explicit date(s) on which Camp Flog Gnaw is held. However, past carnivals have been held at either the end of October or the middle of November (with the exception of the first festival, which was held on September 30, 2012).

Rumors arose during 2019's Camp Flog Gnaw wherein a special guest was to appear and perform at the festival. On that time, discussions online hoped and weened an old affiliate of Odd Future, namely Frank Ocean, was the one to make a well-anticipated appearance in the festival. Woefully, the special guest turned out to be Drake, and many attendees at the festival were left disappointed. Some fans repeatedly booed Drake during his set at the festival, eventually forcing him to walk offstage early since the crowd was not happy. [3] Tyler thereupon expressed his disappointment through a post in Twitter. [4]

On November 7, 2023, it was announced that the festival (set to take place from November 11-12, 2023) will be live-streamed via Amazon Prime and Twitch. [5]
