Eau Claire (WQOW) - Before the Eau Claire City Council next week is a request to move the Eaux Claires Music Festival downtown.

The request from Downtown Eau Claire Inc. asks the city council to approve a resolution authorizing the festival to be conducted in the empty lot just south of the Pablo Center (202 Graham Avenue) July 10 and 11.

According to the request, two stages would be erected there with attendance capped at 6,000 music fans.

The first four years of the festival were held at Foster Farms where Country Jam is held before taking last year off.

Justin Vernon of Bon Iver is among the organizers of the festival.

The city council will vote on the request on Tuesday.
