Friday, June 20, 2019 (Butler, OH) – 

When you’re going to start a new festival, you might as well start one that’s cool. The Smoky Run Music Festival is that cool first-year festival you won’t want to miss. Packed with Americana, FolkRock, and Bluegrass it is nestled in the rolling hills of Butler (OH). With a lineup set to bring some of the coolest vibes this side of the Mississippi, it all starts June 28th and continues through June 30th. Featuring 28+ bands, camping, activities for the kids, and much more.

Smoky Run Music Festival

   

In the typical festival lineup formula, there are your heavyweight headliners and direct support, and then a mixture of established and maybe not so much household name bands. That’s what makes the experience so good at a festival like this. You might just take home a little something from a new favorite band or bands. In any case, you are sure to have a great time.

Grab your tickets HERE!
