The Werk Out Music and Arts Festival 2018 will serve as host to thousands of people; held at Legend Valley Concert Venue & Campground in Thornville, OH. The event marks the ninth year of the festival.

The festival brings awareness to musical styles that are the backbone of the vibrant music scene in the Midwest. It serves as showcase in a shared playground between artist and participant and draws people from all across the United States. The festival is the product of the band, The Werks, and Trickle Productions.

Performers this year include Umphrey’s McGee, Papadosio, Lettuce, Pigeons Playing Ping Pong, and many more.

The shared experience in an outdoor setting attracts a multitude of artisans, vendors, performance artists, and festival-goers who all participate in a celebration that inspires love of life.

Formerly known as Buckeye Lake Music Center, the sprawling festival grounds of Legend Valley have played host to some of Ohio’s most memorable live performances of the past five decades including half a dozen Grateful Dead concerts, as well as tour stops from Lollapalooza, AC/DC, WOMAD, The Allman Brothers Band, and numerous other large events. GA festival passes are available now.

The festival also has an education component, and the full schedule of classes available to festival goers is available below. The festival is also holding a school supplied drive for Lakewood Local Schools.
