After the inaugural 80/35 Festival successfully kicked off last year with headliners The Flaming Lips, Des Moines’ 80/35 Festival is back with a new, fresh line-up. This festival celebrates artists and the people that support them and this year’s festival takes place July 3 and 4 in Western Gateway Park in Des Moines, Iowa. 
The line-up includes bands of all genres and sizes such as: Floodplane, Cleo’s Apt, Beati Paoli, Josh Davis Band, House of Large Sizes and Girl in a Coma.
Headlining the festival are: Matisyahu, Stephen Malkmus and the Jicks, G. Love and Special Sauce, Ben Harper and Relentless 7, and Public Enemy. This is Public Enemy’s original line-up and Stephen Malkmus’ first time to Des Moines.
More bands are expected to be announced in about two weeks. It is speculated for further announcements to include bands routing from Milwaukee’s Summerfest.
Tickets are currently on sale at $70 for a two-day pass and $35 for a single day.
