Lakefront Arena

09/11/2026

A little more room for a BIG 10th anniversary!

FCF is making a small move across the levee to the Lakefront Arena Festival Grounds—just steps from our previous location and the same grounds that host Hogs for the Cause.

What does that mean for you? More space, bigger stages for bigger acts and an entrance closer to primary parking areas. And while the festival footprint is getting an upgrade, getting here will look almost exactly the same, with our primary parking lots and entry routes remaining largely unchanged.

We can’t wait to welcome you to our new site in just 21 DAYS and counting!
