2011 Festival Main Stage

From the Woodstock Square bandstand facing south, our Main Stage overlooks an open grassy area where you can sit and relax while enjoying our featured performers. The deck of the bandstand is high enough to give most people a good line of sight. There are some shady spots, but there are very few places that stay shaded all afternoon, so plan accordingly. And no matter where you sit, the sound will be excellent.

Sets on the Main Stage, except the award presentation and the “Best of Woodstock” segments, are 40 minutes, with five minutes between performers.
