Back Forty Fest

Description

Back Forty Fest is back—and it didn’t come back quietly. 

Tucked deep in the pines and a little off the radar, this is where the Northwoods turns the volume up for a day.

We’re stacking the stage from afternoon to night with a mix of local talent and full-throttle tribute acts

Starting with Brainerd’s own Third Wheel, rolling into a Cake tribute that hits all the right notes, and closing it out with a Red Hot Chili Peppers set that doesn’t hold anything back. 

In between, expect a steady pulse of live music to keep things moving. 

• Third Wheel:  2pm - 4pm
• Andy D:  4pm - 5pm (patio stage) 
• Cake Walk:  5pm - 6:30pm 
• Andy D:  6:30pm - 7:30pm (patio stage) 
• SirPsycho:  7:30pm - 9pm 

Cold beer, loud guitars, and a crowd that knows exactly why they showed up. It’s a little bigger this year, a little tighter, and still just rough enough around the edges to feel like it’s ours.
