DREYFEST 7.5

On March 6th, Waste Division will be presenting Julia-Louis Dreyfest 7.5! We’ll be bringing in some of the best musicians and artists in the state of Montana and raising money for this year’s Dreyfest VIII in August. The Dreyfest Crew has wanted to make every festival bigger and better and having this event between our annual event ensures we keep momentum going for sponsorship and attendees alike.

Dreyfest 7.5 will be hosted by Billings’ very own Craft Local which will have two stages on two floors. This way, attendees will be centrally located around so many great musicians and artists and you won’t have to wear a parka when traveling between sets. From 5:30 to 10:30, bands will be alternating between the downstairs stage and upstairs stage; then at 10:30, the three headliners will all be performing on the upstairs stage until the fest’s end at 12:30. This seven hour extravaganza hosts musical artists but also visual artists who will be displaying their craft for your art-starved eyes.

Much of Dreyfest 7.5 is about raising money through sponsors and attendees for Dreyfest VIII. Every year we want to bring in a bigger group to keep things spicy. So, March’s event is our way to build up the Dreyfest coffers and get more attention and support to bring in a group that those who don’t normally come to Dreyfest will want to see. This energy and dedication we have for expanding our festival is just as important as making these events inclusive, safe - and most importantly - fun! By making the event more than just one weekend, we hope that artists and fans alike will think about Dreyfest beyond its August date and realize just how significant this community festival is for keeping creative people engaged and supported.
