SweetWater 420 Fest Ready to Rock Atlanta
Tomorrow the awesomeness that is the SweetWater 420 Fest commences in Atlanta. Put on your running shoes, because you’re going to need them! Two main stages, the Lyrics and Laughter Stage, 420 Disco, and the SweetWater Experience Tent will keep you busy the next three days!
FRIDAY
The primary SweetWater Stage will be headlined by The Avett Brothers, Rebelution, JJ Grey & Mofro, and John Medeski’s Mad Skillet. The Planet 420 Stage is just as huge, with Joe Russo’s Almost Dead, Billy Strings, and Pink Talking Fish for your enjoyment.
The comedians appear between the bands on the Lyrics and Laughter Stage, where you’ll hear Cory Wong, Flow Tribe and more interspersed with Joe Pettis, Aaron Lee Tasjan, and others. Over at 420 Disco, check out EDM and livetronica with Goth-Trad, Little People, and Igloohost at the top of the list. And there are lots of activities over at the SweetWater Experience Tent each day.
