Experience Crossroads
Like a pro
Looking for something unique?
Summer. Nebraska. Hot. Humid. And then, also, the wildest music you can imagine, that you literally can’t hear anywhere else. The reunion of Buena Vista Social Club; Armenian folk rock; Indigenous hip hop, Indie-Electronic from the Berlin underground. What? Just another Crossroads Festival.
Witness the intimate, the virtuosic, the profound, the hands-in-the-air, and–of course– the dance party. Everyone who experiences the festival says “can this really be happening in Nebraska?”
It is. And you can experience it too.
For the adventurous, for the inquisitive, for those with insatiable desire to experience life to the fullest – Crossroads is for YOU!
More than just the music
Crossroads is more than just the music. It’s the experience. It’s meeting people you’d never have the chance to meet otherwise. So when you come, make the time to hang afterwards – we musicians love that. Sharing music with you and getting to know you is why we’re in this profession. You’ll meet people from everywhere with insane stories to tell – and you’ll leave with a richer heart (and a cooler Instagram profile).
