Santa Fe muzik Fest

Santa Fe muzik Fest

The Santa Fe Muzik Fest festival aimed at revitalizing the music and art awareness for Santa Fe, New Mexico and surrounding states. With community partners, Santa Fe Muzik Fest took place at the Downs race track south of Santa Fe, just off I-25. Over 25 acres of grass and rolling hills were utilized for this festival.

Founded in Santa Fe in 2007, this outdoor event is based on a specific format consisting of Music, Art, Performance and the celebration of Santa Fe's weather and location. Santa Fe Muzik Fest's goal is to bring together people from all walks of life with a little bit of everything for everyone. The Santa Fe Muzik Fest featured three days of Music including both main stream and local artists as well as underground electronic Dj's and performers.Unlike major events such as Bonnaroo and Coachella, Santa Fe Muzik fest invested in smaller acts and a big focus on outside police security. Overall the Fest was not a success. The festival invested a tremendous sum of money in infrastructure ( which was great), but did not invest in any major headliners. It allowed lesser know groups to show their talents and well known groups of the past to be seen. There was alcohol sold on the premise but it was kept to secluded areas of the grounds. Camping was offered to those who chose to do so, but unfortunatelty no shower facilities were available, no alcohol consumption was allowed and was constantly a target of police harassment and discomfort. Security was completely overwhelming and created a police state atmosphere.Hopefully with all the way things went in 2007, changes will be made and there will be many more Muzik Fests to come!

As of September 2008, no festival plans have been announced, and the official website has been taken down.
