Woodstock Music & Arts Festival Sets The Official 50th Anniversary Celebration

8/16-18

WOODSTOCK 1969’s Co-Producer/Co-Founder MICHAEL LANG is bringing back the legendary WOODSTOCK MUSIC & ARTS FAIR for its official 50th anniversary celebration. The three-day event will take place from FRIDAY, AUG. 16th through SUNDAY, AUG. 18th in WATKINS GLEN, NY. 

“It’s time to put the speculation to rest and officially announce that WOODSTOCK 50 is happening,” said LANG. “The original festival in ‘69 was a reaction by the youth of the time to the causes we felt compelled to fight for - civil rights, women’s rights, and the antiwar movement, and it gave way to our mission to share peace, love and music. Today, we’re experiencing similar disconnects in our country, and one thing we’ve learned is that music has the power to bring people together. So, it’s time to bring the Woodstock spirit back, get involved and make our voices heard.”

“The original site in BETHEL is wonderful, but much too small for what we’re envisioning,” said LANG. “WATKINS GLEN INTERNATIONAL gives us the ability to create something unlike any other commemorative event and something uniquely WOODSTOCK."
