Throughout the weekend, there will also be sets by Greensky Bluegrass, Preservation Hall Jazz Band, Molly Tuttle, Soccer Mommy, Spin Doctors, Richard Thompson, Tune-Yards and Snacktime. Performances will take place on two waterfront stages and there will be plenty of lawn seating, plus food and drink vendors and a children's activities area.
Tickets to the festival can be purchased online. One-day passes for Friday or Saturday cost $88, one-day passes for Sunday cost $98, three-day passes cost $260, and passes for kids ages 2-12 cost $10.
