Newsflash:
Gas prices reach beyond $4 per gallon!
Many name brand Fests well over 200 per ticket!
With the cost of living and travelling reaching all time highs it is becoming less and less affordable to be a festivarian but don't worry, the 1st annual Forestjam is on! We at Sustainable Productions feel it is high time to offer a fresh vision of the modern music festival where the commercial aspect is ditched for a truly intimate and kind experience that showcases new and emerging(along with the tried and true) high quality music at a truly affordable price. We have been doing our homework now for the last 20 years on the scene and feel we have distilled the best aspects of the festival experience and you can enjoy it while knowing you still have gas money for the ride home.
