I went to the national rainbow gathering this year in Colorado and it quite honestly blew my mind. I had no idea what to expect, but basically it was a meeting of all kinds of people from all over the world, an excuse to go up to the mountains and forget about all that bullshit that accompanies the day-to-day grind, at least for a little while.

At the gathering technology is minimal, people don't ever know the time because they have no reason to, and money is shunned in favor of bartering and trade. I was amazed from the beginning by how open and accepting people were--like there's no reason to hide anything--and it felt very natural to reciprocate in kind.

Drugs, particularly marijuana and off topic hallucinogens, flowed like water. Often enough I'd be thinking "damn i wish i had a bowl now" and as if by magic it would appear. I got smoked up by a complete stranger more times than I can count.

The rainbow gathering is best experienced first hand though...I could go on describing it for hours and not even scrape the surface. If you're interested I suggest you visit the website JnEverett posted, it has lots of information. Cheers!
