OGDEN MUSIC FESTIVAL MOVES TO HIGHER GROUND

Due to flooding at Fort Buenaventura, the 15th Ogden Music Festival will be held at a new location, “Fort BDO” at 600 N Depot Drive in Ogden, with all the same festival activities including on-site camping. 

After a long winter and some much needed snow we are so excited to kick off the summer with the Ogden Music Festival. Mother nature has other plans, and Fort Buenaventura will not be ready to host this year's festival due to record snowfall and now record flooding. The decision to relocate was made after county officials confirmed that flooding at Fort Buenaventura is not expected to subside before June. So we are moving the festival to higher ground to what we’re affectionately calling “Fort BDO”. Fort BDO will still have all of the great music, workshops, jam camp, kids zone, and camping. 

We are thrilled to have found this new spot for this year's festival, and look forward to seeing this wide open space transformed into a beautiful music venue! It has been a lot of hard work to make it happen, and the support from our community has been amazing. OFOAM wishes to express their sincerest gratitude to Ogden City, BDO, and Weber County for helping us to clear all of the obstacles and make this year's festival a possibility. Thank you to our attendees, artists, vendors, and volunteers for their patience and willingness to be flexible as we navigate these extraordinary natural conditions.

We welcome everyone to come show our amazing artist lineup this year that a little bit of water (ok, maybe a lot of water!) can’t dampen the OFOAM spirit. Come join us and experience the magic of the Ogden Music Festival. We can’t wait to welcome you to “Fort BDO”!
