Due to the unfavorable economic conditions, hosting Dirt Fest this year is no longer a viable option. This decision did not come easy. In fact, it is one of the most difficult decisions we’ve ever had to make both personally and professionally. However, we’re happy to walk away from Dirt Fest on a positive note having learned so much, and with so many successful years under our belts. We’ve had the pleasure of promoting and hosting nearly a thousand bands both, local and national, over the span of the festival’s lifetime. It’s an incredible feeling knowing that we’ve created memorable experiences for so many people in Michigan and the surrounding area. We appreciate everyone’s interest and support over the last 13 years. Our love of music is what drives us to organize this event. Your love of music is what made it possible year after year after year. Please continue supporting your local music community. On behalf of Kurt Gust, Matt Dalton, all the bands that have played, and everyone who has ever been involved in helping us put this festival together; Thank You! We could not have done anything without your eager support.

Respectfully Yours,
Andrew Dalton
Owner / Event Coordinator
