Win Tickets to Mo Pop!!!

This weekend there is a HUGE festival happening in Detroit featuring some of the biggest names in music right now. It's Mo Pop and it is going to be amazing! This is only the third edition of this festival, that started off in 2013 at Freedom Hill. The festival has already grown by leaps and bounds, adding a second day and featuring big names like Modest Mouse.

This year's Mo Pop will take place on Saturday, July 25th and Sunday, July 26th. It has changed venues and will now take place at West Riverfront Park, on Detroit's Riverfront west of Cobo and the rest of Downtown Detroit. The exact location is 1801 W. Jefferson in Detroit. The festival will feature 2 stages, food trucks, local crafters selling their goods, a biergarten featuring microbrews and Michigan made beers, and Mo Tech, featuring "local hacker spaces, artists, start-ups, and inventors".

Although the entire festival is pretty cool, the biggest part is obviously the music. This year's lineup is absolutely outstanding! Saturday you can see George Morris & The Gypsy Chorus, Coin, Ryley Walker, Ex Cops, Natalie Prass, Coasts, King Tuff, James Bay, Atlas Genius, Iron & Wine with Ben Bridwell, Brandon Flowers and Chromeo. Sunday's lineup includes ELEL, Dreamers, Sonny & The Sunsets, In The Valley Below, Givers, Wild Child, Viet Cong, Saint Motel, The Front Bottoms, Passion Pit, Jessica Hernandez & The Deltas and Modest Mouse!
