Bethel Woods Music and Culture Festival lately concerning its inaugural outing. The pageant can be held August 16th-18th in 2019 in Bethel Woods, on the web site the unique Woodstock Festival in 1969. However, BWMCF is by no means affiliated with Woodstock Ventures, LLC. While this pageant has been extensively reported as a 50th anniversary pageant for Woodstock, to name it so is a bit a misnomer.
Michael Lang, producer and co-creator the unique Woodstock Festival in 1969, is producing the “ficial” anniversary, but it surely received’t be at Bethel Woods.
In an announcement despatched out to media this morning, Lang states, “While the unique web site in Bethel stays near our hearts, it now not has the capability to carry an actual Woodstock Festival. I’m delighted that Bethel Woods is doing occasions within the coming yr to have a good time what we delivered to life in 1969 and I encourage individuals to go to the museum and live performance venue.”
In the subsequent few weeks, Lang will shortly be asserting his plans for the “actual” Woodstock 50th Festival to deliver again the a lot wanted spirit and power the 1969 unique.
However, it stays to be seen if Lang’s pageant could have the power to topple BWMCF after an already-powerful media presence and reference to a 50th anniversary pageant.
