We have recently heard numerous complaints from locals that there aren’t any Electronic Dance Music (EDM) festivals in the Boise area.

And we have to say – we definitely agree with them. 

This is certainly a genre of music that many of us would love to see more of in the Treasure Valley.

 

 

This is why we were shocked and ecstatic to learn that there are two random music festivals happening this upcoming weekend!

While these aren’t giant festivals that last for multiple days in a row, we’d say that it’s certainly a nice place to start.

Especially because these are both super close, and one of them is actually free.

 

So get your dancing shoes and pashminas ready…

Because we are about to get turnt up this weekend.
