What are you thoughts on this year’s lineup? On a scale of 1-10, how would you rate it?

“The quality of talent at Music Midtown makes a weekend pass the ultimate experience for music fans,” shared Conlon in a news release. “Our lineup showcases an appreciation for the different genres and the variety of music our attendees want to hear. Combine that with the festival amenities including more cuisine and beverage selections and additional onsite activations and the value of Music Midtown is second to none.

A third stage will also be added to the weekend festival in the heart of the city.

“Music Midtown is always evolving and this year’s expansion of the festival footprint is part of that,” Conlon said. “At this time, we’re not increasing capacity, our move into Oak Hill will allow us to feature more music on a third stage. The Roxy stage will be located near the Festival entrance on 10th Street and feature some terrific talent throughout the weekend.”
