A lot of sunshine is on tap this weekend in St. Louis for the 2017 LouFest Music Festival.

The festival has made a slight shift to the location with the stage area now being stationed away Central Fields, and moved to the Upper Muny Grounds. I am looking forward to celebrating LouFest once again this year in Forest Park, but in a new section of downtown St. Louis.

Another addition this year is the all-star live set of music honoring the music history of Chuck Berry. Musicians set to perform include: Captain Kirk Douglas (The Roots), Rashawn Ross (Dave Matthews Band), Britt Daniel (Spoon), Matt Shultz and Nick Bockrath (Cage the Elephant) , Eric Krasno (Soulive, Lettuce), Pokey Lafarge and more.

Browse over the updated festival grounds with the 2017 LouFest map.

LouFest Music Festival will host a pre-party on Friday evening at Off Broadway featuring Dressy Bessy, with Cotton Mather and Middle Class Fashion.

Music Record Shop will be providing an area for artist signing, and a selection of vinyl records.

In addition to the music, LouFest will also be hosting a wide variety of culinary treats from the St. Louis area.

Tickets are still available via the festival’s main website. Single day and two day passes are still available.

BMI and Tunespeak have teamed up to provide a spotlight for breakthrough acts. Scan over the daily schedule for the BMI/Tunespeak Stage at LouFest.
