Second Annual Harvest of Hope Fest Announced
The second annual Harvest of Hope Fest is set to take place in St. Augustine, Florida from March 12th through March 14th.
The festival is designed to raise fund and awareness for the Harvest of Hope Foundation, an “organization that has been providing migrant farmworkers and their families with emergency relief and financial assistance for over 15 years.”
I can’t honestly say that I remember hearing about the first edition of the Harvest of Hope Festival, but the lineup for this year’s second annual festival looks pretty spectacular — Billy Bragg, The Mountain Goats, forgetters, Rogue Wave, Dead Confederate, and many, many more.
Beginning today, 3-day passes are available at an early-bird price of just $39.50. Prices will gradually go up in price to $49.50 and then $60.00 for walk-up purchases. Single-day tickets are also available, as are camping passes and VIP passes. Full info on tickets, camping, and everything else can be found here.
Here are the more interesting (to me) artists performing. Too bad St. Augustine is more than 1,000 miles away from Chicago. :^(
