Do you ever wonder what it would be like to relive woodstock? Or for some of us, actually, LIVE through it? Well, we may get the chance to! In recent news, it was announced by Festive Owl that the 50th-anniversary Woodstock music and art festival is in the works for the upcoming future. Featuring artists including Daft Punk, Ariana Grande, The Weekend, Chance The Rapper and many more. Michael Lang, the co-founder of the iconic music and art festival, Woodstock, stated in an interview with Pough Keepsie Journal, “we have definite plans.” and “this is not a done deal yet. But it’s very close.” This is an exciting time for all of us festival goers!

In August of 1969, half a million people by feet and car gathered for the 3-day celebration, emanating love, freedom, and hope for the future ahead. This event was a huge symbol of the culture development at the time and for many, it was an experience that would be remembered forever.

Woodstock brought in 400,000 people to Max Yasgur’s 600-acre dairy farm in Bethel, New York. And guess what? The 50th anniversary of this incredible experience is happening near the same acre of land that started it all. According to WLTX19, Lang said, “the anniversary will be built around sustainability, activism, and social justices, themes that will hopefully encourage people to get involved with our lives on the planet” He continues, “my goal is to harness the history and essence of what Woodstock was.”

During this 3-day event, musical artists including Jimi Hendrix, The Who, Grateful Dead, Santana, Janis Joplin, Crosby, Nash & Young and so many more sent thousands of people on a nostalgic journey, one that would send memorable echoes beyond decades. Lang intends on calling the 50th anniversary, “Journey On” and a journey on is right for so many of us who can’t wait to experience this! We can expect 6 stages, 35,000 + Woodstock legends and some wild performances from the world’s best.

Michael Lang, goes on to say,

That’s what means the most to me–the connection to one another felt by all of us who worked on the festival, all those who came to it, and the millions who couldn’t be there but were touched by it.

Festive Owl leaked the lineup in a recent tweet, hyping us festival goers for this nostalgic event!
