In this episode of the Music Festivals Podcast, we take a up-close look at a truly one-of-a-kind Midwest music venue. I’m breaking down the Poe Road Music Sanctuary’s 2025 Season Opener in Grand Rapids, Ohio—a one night festival held at a hidden gem set in the middle of the cornfields with a history as unique as its lineup.

Poe Rd. is definitely an Ohio festival venue that should be on your list for this summer and fall. Join me as I recap the night’s standout performances from bands like The Funk Factory, ekoostik hookah, and Top Scrub, and see some of the performances from the weekend along with aerial drone video footage of the venue.
