2004 TEMPE MUSIC FESTIVAL SCHEDULED FOR APRIL 2 & 3

TEMPE, Ariz. (May 12, 2003) – The largest music festival to hit the shores of Tempe Beach Park will return in 2004 on Friday, April 2 and Saturday, April 3. The festival features a 2-day extravaganza of diverse musical entertainment, unique special attractions, and interactive venues for all ages.

The Tempe Music Festival is modeled after some of the nation’s best festivals such as San Diego’s ‘Street Scene’ and Milwaukee’s ‘Summerfest’. This past year, the Tempe Music Festival hosted over 60 bands on five stages during a two-day period. The inaugural event brought nearly 20,000 people to the Tempe Beach Park event grounds. The event became one of the largest music festivals in the Southwest to uniquely combine special attractions such as The Jimi Hendrix Red House Tour and Fender Extreme Sports Area with Master Guitar Builder Demonstrations.

“We are very proud of the first year success of the Tempe Music Festival. We have received a great deal of positive feedback from vendors, talent, and sponsors all wanting to be a part of the festivities for next year,” said Ken Koziol, co-promoter of the Tempe Music Festival.
