St. Louis' live music scene is growing, and one popular addition is LouFest, a two-day indie music festival held in Forest Park. Top national and local musicians perform each year for a large crowd of dedicated fans. Performers for 2015 include Hozier, Ludacris, The Avett Brothers and Young the Giant.

Those with a valid ticket are allowed to leave and re-enter the festival grounds. LouFest will go on regardless of weather and no refunds will be issued for tickets.
Going Green/Getting Around:
A big part of LouFest is the commitment to going green. There are recycling bins through out the festival grounds to reduce waste.

Another good way to get to LouFest is Metrolink.

Other Things to Know:
Everyone must pass through security to get into the festival. Bags will be checked for prohibited items like glass bottles, coolers, food and drinks. Pets are also not allowed at the festival. Each person can bring two unopened bottles of water or an empty metal or plastic bottle.
For the Kids:
The music and beer garden may be for adults, but there is a way to keep the kids entertained during LouFest. LouKidz is a special section of the festival grounds for kids of all ages. It's open each day from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. There is family friendly entertainment, games arts & crafts and much more.
