MARQUETTE, Mich. (WZMQ) – The Hiawatha Music Co-op is holding its 44th annual Hiawatha Music Festival on July 19 – 21 at Tourist Park in Marquette.
The three-day festival will feature 10 different folk groups of different folk styles from country to Mongolian throat singing.
According to the organizers, the festival takes over 600 volunteers to keep things running smoothly, and they are still looking to fill openings.
“Just try it out,” said Hiawatha Music Co-op’s content manager, Sarah Gimple. “And you know there’s lots of little tasks that we have our volunteers do that are really low maintenance just to kind of dip your toes in it. It’s really just a great time and you can just kind of meet new people and have new music experiences and art experiences.”
