Some cool news coming out of the HomeGrown Music and Art Festival‘s pipeline today — and not just the performance schedule, which, you’ll see after the jump, finds the day starting off a little bit country and ending off a lot electronic.
The second-year fest, which this year will again take place at Main Street Garden Park in downtown Dallas, has now announced plans to shuttle fans to their event for free. The service comes courtesy of new-to-Dallas electronic car company and event co-sponsor E-Frogs, which has committed to driving festival attendees that live along the company’s service route (which covers East Dallas, Lower Greenville, Uptown, Downtown and Deep Ellum) to the event. All that the fest’s attendees have to do is call up an E-Frogs driver, and they’ll get shuttled on downtown free-of-charge — just as, it appears, the company is committed to doing all the time, actually.
“Pretty cool, huh?” says John Solis, spokesperson for the event and one of the event’s co-organizers and co-founders, of the service.
Update: Turns out, we were a little ahead of ourselves in spreading this word. EFrogs has backed out of the festival. Lame.
Yeah. Very, actually. Especially since, now, if you win the last pair of tickets we’ve got to have out for the event, you can arrive at and attend the festival without any scratch off your back. See how to win our last free pair of tickets after the jump, where, once again, we’ve posted the event schedule in full.
Want the free pair of tickets? Sure thing. Just be sure to email me by 5 p.m. with the words “All Growns Up” in the subject line to enter. We’ll pick a winner at random. Please email just once; those who enter multiple times will be disqualified. Good luck!
Update: Contest is over. Congrats to our winner!
