The history of Music and Arts Festivals truly begins with the iconic Woodstock Music and Art Fair in 1969. Woodstock launched the careers of Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Santana, and other classic bands of the 1970s. Often-forgotten is the fact that Woodstock was also a landmark Arts Festival as well. Over the next few years Music Festivals would emerge as cultural milestones that united musicians and genres for one night.
In more modern times, the Lollapalooza Festival would be another landmark Festival. Lollapalooza established the traveling Festival and led to future nation or worldwide tours. The success of Lollapalooza led to genre-specific tours including the Family Values Tour, the Warped Tour, and Ozzfest. Ozzfest would go on to be one of the most important yearly tours in the world. Ozzfest has widely been regarded as launching several genres of Metal including the Alternative Metal movement of the late 1990s, making the careers of bands like Slipknot and Godsmack.
The Music Festival has become a right of passage for the summer. Newly-minted Festivals like Taste of Chaos, Projekt Revolution, and Family Values Tour have become some of the biggest events in music and unite bands and fans across multiple musical genres. Music Festivals like Farm Aid and Live Aid have been organized to raise money for charitable causes. The Live 8 and Live Earth Festivals both broke records for charitable events and were recognized as cultural milestones.
Music Festivals of both the static and traveling variety continue to thrill audiences and draw huge crowds at all times of the year. With newer Festivals like Crue Fest, the Mayhem Festival, Rock the Bayou, and Bonnaroo popping up all over the world, the long tradition of Music and Arts Festivals will continue. Whether you want to see a gathering of your favorite bands or a show that showcases your favorite artists and art forms, the action of Music and Art Festivals cannot be missed.
