Demf! One of the best, if not the best, festivals around. Can't say enough good things about this one, but a "see you again next year" will do ;-)

I've been here for a couple of events and it's always filled with all different types of people and the atmosphere has always been so welcoming. Always fun, and I will continue to come to more events !

We hooked up with Detroit native Mayer Hawthorne to record "Swimsuits." The song sounds like a summer day and Hart Plaza is where we did our first show on the water. -Chuck from The Cool Kids

If u are coming for the Jazz Fest. Bring a couple chairs and a blanket and make a camp in the shade where u can get a breeze between acts.
