The festival features two stages - the Main Stage offers an explosive variety of live music from regional and national touring acts. The Roots Stage has a laid-back vibe of Americana and new music.

Seating is casual and available on a first-come, first-serve basis; early arrival is encouraged for each night’s headline acts. Blankets and lawn chairs are welcome.
