Audiotree Music Festival is returning to Kalamazoo’s Arcadia Creek Festival Place on Saturday, September 22nd and Sunday, September 23rd for the 6th year in a row. The main stage lineup was announced last month, featuring Father John Misty, Local Natives, Real Estate, Khruangbin, and more. Now, the festival has shared its WIDR Stage lineup, featuring Slow Mass, Michigander, Pool Holograph, McKinley Dixon, and Miranda Winters amongst others.
Booked in collaboration with Western Michigan University’s student radio station, WIDR-FM, The WIDR Stage will present a dozen up-and-coming artists that are predominantly from Kalamazoo, Grand Rapids, and Chicago. ATMF has worked with WIDR-FM for the last 5 years, but this is the first time that the station has participated in the festival’s booking process.
Audiotree Music Festival and its namesake company, Audiotree, were founded by Kalamazoo natives Michael Johnston and Adam Thurston. The duo have always made an effort to ensure that the company and the fest share a unifying goal: to provide a platform for artists and fans to discover one another through live performances. With the addition of the WIDR Stage, ATMF attendees now have an opportunity to see new artists from their hometown and neighboring cities.
In addition to music, the festival will offer a variety of craft beer, food trucks, and specialty vendors from the Kalamazoo area. The fest is all ages and children under the age of 10 get free admission with an adult.
Keep your mind open.
