Oceana County - Calling itself The Next Evolution in U.S. Music Festivals, a national promoter announced the launch of "Rothbury: A Sustainable Festival Celebrating Music, Art and Action" this morning in Oceana County.
The festival, which is slated to include the Dave Matthews Band, John Mayer, Snoop Dogg and over 60 more bands and acts, will take place over the 4th of July weekend at the Double JJ Ranch and Resort.
In addition to music, which will range from rock to bluegrass, the event will also host an on-site think tank on climate change and clean energy. The festival organizer says that it will be a "near zero-waste" concert, with an on-staff "Greening Chief" and other "green" options for attenders.
The festival will also assist local initiatives like the Solar Schools Program at Shelby High School, the Shelby and Montague High School Music Programs and local food pantries.
Tickets will be $224 for the entire four day festival and go on sale on February 27th at noon at www.rothburyfestival.com or at 1-888-512-SHOW.
More information is available about the festival at www.rothburyfestival.com. Tickets for the 4-day festival are $224.
