Headlined by the recently reunited Sublime, Lake Street Dive and Mt. Joy, the festival featured local, national and international bands that featured genres from reggae to folk, to rock, funk, country and more. 

The decibel level seemed to reach its peak during the last song of the last set of the weekend - Sublime’s Santeria. Thousands of people sang along while American flags were waved, and the jam-packed weekend came to a close. 

Boredom was close to impossible over the three days because beyond the back-to-back sets from 27 different bands and musicians, festivalgoers were surrounded by artists painting murals at every corner and skateboarding demonstrations by professional skater and Pembroke native, Nora Vasconcellos, who was joined by friends.
