Vineland Music Festival Facing Opposition

by User Imagedklein on January 11th, 2008

In case you haven’t heard, the promoters of Lollapalooza are gearing up to put on a 3-day music festival in Vineland, NJ (about an hour from NYC, Philly, and DC) on August 8-10, 2008. However, they seem to be facing opposition from NARCS (Neighbors Against Rock Concert Site) who had a meeting Thursday night.

According to Delaware Online, “Paul Sungenis, former owner of DeMarco Cinemas on Landis Avenue, said he’s drafted a ‘Vineland Festival Regulation Act’ that would cap festival attendance at 20,000 as well as limit camping and the festival’s hours of operation….[Local developer Pete] Steenland said the Cumberland County Fairgrounds in Millville would be a more appropriate site for the festival….The organizers will present their site plan to the city Planning Board for an advisory opinion during a meeting Feb. 13, Tonetta said. Council is expected to vote on a final agreement for the festival by March, he said.”
