Moonstone Festival, a one day music and arts festival happening November 16 at Sloss Docks, is less than a month away. Here’s everything you need to know including who’s performing, local vendors attending, live art installations happening, afterparty deets and how to win tickets before the event!
First Thing’s First—The Lineup 🎶🔮
The motive behind Moonstone is to celebrate womxn in music and art. So it’s no surprise the majority of musicians on the lineup are female fronted acts. The nationally-touring artists are all unique. And if you’re into the dream pop/indie rock sound, you’ll love the roster below. Visit Moonstone’s site for more info on the artists.
