BAD Day Music & Arts Festival is a family-friendly event and 100% FREE for children 12 and under. We are all about creating a family friendly event, which is why we are building the BAD Kid Zone in the main stage festival area. If the kids get a little restless, bored, or simply need a break from the music or sun to do kid stuff, bring them over to the BAD Kid Zone. Here the whole gang can take a load off in the shade, play some games, or let their creativity fly with arts & crafts. We promise it will be open to BAD kids and good kids alike!
