COMFEST Community Festival

This year's COMFEST Community Festival will be held June 27-29, 2008 at Goodale Park near N. High St. in the Short North area of Columbus. The COMFEST Web site says the festival is "arguably the largest free, non-corporate urban music and arts festival in the United States." From the Iraq war to school funding to government waste, COMFEST takes it all on.

The COMFEST Community Festival features live entertainment from 9:00 a.m. to midnight on Friday and Saturday, and from noon to 10:00 p.m. on Sunday. Live music and performers will simultaneously perform on several stages and local groups and vendors will have booths during the entire festival.
