"For me the festival being down town was why I went. It’s somewhat unique in the “festival” scene. Next year they move out west a bit and most likely be like all the all rest and loose it’s charm but we’ll see. The whole main stage area and it’s surrounding fence cover in tarps to keep those who didn’t purchase main stage passes from seeing seeing a somewhat dull lineup for 2023. Thing is you can hear MainStage performers echoing through the downtown streets while they play. So if audio is more important than visual who cares about the about the island in the middle as you’ll be able to hear everything as you wander the streets to and from the 3 free stages checking on some bands which of many are good. A couple side notes: (1) bike friendly with a ‘free’ bike parking area. Ample food truck offerings. (2) decent police presence but more friendly and helpful than forceful. (3) a good vibe and feel that often gets corrupted with the dumbness of a few clowns wasn’t apparent. Good luck at your next festival grounds!"
"I have always enjoyed outside music festivals. This one always has something in about every jendre of music. Something for everyone street food and music and cold beer!"
"There has been a limited variety of bands since 2018. It isn't an intentional diversity either, because it mostly bands with white women lead singers. I enjoyed some of them but after a while it seemed like the same band over and over. The festival is decent and they aren't afraid to rearrange things. This year (2019) they put a B stage in with main stage so that there was always music playing. That was a smart move. The downside was that there was no stage with plenty of shade present like in years past. Have gone to festival 6 times and would return."
"This is a consistently solid music festival and has been for years. There's a wide variety of music and multiple stages, so there's something for everyone all day long. It's also a great value, and it's structured in such a way that to can actually afford to go and enjoy yourself. I no longer live in Iowa but I always come back for 80/35."
"Kesha sucked, not family friendly when every other word in your music is an expletive(is it that hard to creative lyrics? When in doubt just say f?@k?) and your wardrobe is inappropriately revealing. Mainstage bands weren't that great, wouldn't pay to get into this again, the free stages are much better"
