The Hinterland Music Festival is inspired by the place where we live: Des Moines. Iowa. The Midwest.
It’s a weekend of great music under the
stars and skyline. It’s two days of music hand-picked by First Fleet’s
Sam Summers for the gorgeous backdrop of Water Works Park, a 1,500 acre
oasis in the center of our city. In our first year, Hinterland will
feature a diverse blend of relevant artists, cyclist events, on-site
sculpture and art installations, craft vendors, family engagement and
more.
We’re excited to bring a festival to the
area that captures that Midwestern knack for finding the beauty in all
things urban and rural. We promise you, our first year is going to be a
truly unique experience for music lovers. Come down to Hinterland in
July, won’t you?
