"Regarded as a breakout [festival] hit" (New York Times / April 2008), today the first annual Mile High Music Festival powered by SanDisk unveils the highly anticipated festival schedule. Visit www.milehighmusicfestival.com to view stage times for the stellar line-up of over 40 artists to appear July 19th and 20th at the Outer Fields at Dick's Sporting Goods Park.
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers will headline on Saturday, July 19th; Dave Matthews Band will top the bill on Sunday, July 20th. Colorado has never before seen a music festival of this magnitude: hosting five stages (some tented), food from many of Denver's top restaurants, an artists' village, misting tents and more. Single-day and 2 day passes are on sale now at www.MileHighMusicFestival.com.
Also recently unveiled is the Festival's "Carpool to Mile High" Contest. Patrons are being encouraged to "Go Green" by carpooling with four or more people in one vehicle. Here's how it works: Make a fun and noticeable sign in your car window telling everybody who can see, that you are carpooling. Sign must in include the words: "Carpool to Mile High". When you arrive at the Festival go to the 64th Avenue entrance and follow signs to Carpool Parking. In addition to premium, close-in parking, you will be automatically entered to win VIP passes and access to a MHMF artist meet-and-greet for everyone in your car. Winner's license plate numbers will be announced on the Main Stage video screens at 5 PM both days, and prizes will be redeemed at the Merchandise Tent. All cars admitted in the carpool lot will be entered to win.
Also just announced, Colorado based not-for-profit Conscious Alliance will host a Food Drive at the Mile High Music Festival to benefit Food Bank of the Rockies (www.FoodBankRockies.org).
