The Tall Stacks are Coming! The Tall Stacks are Coming!
Tall Stacks group ticket sales went on sale earlier this month and the initial results are more than 3x the sales from the same period last event. This is great news for the event. I am also pleased to see the ticket sales have gone up. You may have seen that the event actually lost money despite attracting more than 900,000 people. This was due to the fact that the 5 day festival pass (including music festival) was only $12. That is incredibly low. Especially when you consider that many of the acts that played Tall Stacks were at a music festival in Austin the month before (Austin City Limits Music Festival) that charged $75 for a 3-day event.
So I am glad to see them raise it, but still make it affordable ($20). That's a great price, but should also allow the festival to be financially successful, and bring more than a million people to the riverfront. It's a great celebration of Cincinnati History and great music... I love Tall Stacks!
Public Sales start in November, so keep an eye on the website for ticket info.
