Though you may think us deep-seeded in denial, we here at Nomadness refuse to let out the exasperated sighs signaling the fact that we're already a month into the summer. A whole month! For us, it feels like it's just barely beginning.
Up in Mammoth, there are two things we associate with the word "summer"- food and festivals. That's why we're out of our minds for this weekend's Villagefest and next weekend's world renown Bluesapalooza!
Globally (and factually) known as the busiest weekend in Mammoth, the Festival of Beers and Bluesapalooza has proven to get even wilder with each passing year. With over 30 bands and at least 70 breweries making their rounds on the grounds this year, one can guarantee tickets will sell out soon.
This weekend, however, the Villagefest is in town. Known as the world's "highest rib cook-off" at 8,050 feet, the Mammoth Villagefest is filled with rock n' roll, ribs, and rowdy rebel rousers. The fun will kick off on Friday and, this year, the event has an estimated turnout of 11,000 visitors and promises to light a spark in the heart of your inner wild thing.
Eagles and Pink Floyd tribute bands will entertain the crowds while the delectable smells of chili and barbecue infiltrate the air around them.
The event is free, with proceeds from food and drink benefiting local charities.
