What is Waynewoodstock?

Born in 2024, Waynewoodstock is the Fort Hunt community's own backyard music festival. Two stages of live bands, local food trucks, craft artisans, cold beer, a kids zone, and the neighborhood vibes that make Waynewood special.

In just two years we've grown from 500 neighbors to 800+. This year we're aiming for 1,000 — and we want you there.
