35/80 Music Festival

Well, this weekend is Des Moines first 35/80 Music Festival. It is the first one I think the city has had of this size. You can check out all the details at http://www.80-35.com/. The music line up looks pretty good. The full list and schedule is below.

I plan to go on Saturday and take Noah with me. Kids under 2 get in free. Or at least 2 kids per paid adult do. On the schedule below I put in bold the artists/bands I want to try and catch.

There are two free music stages as well as a Kids Zone on Saturday with inflatables, an instrument zoo, and musical performances. It should be a really good time and family friendly. Look for lots of photos from the event when I am out there.

Here is a map of the festival.
