The newly announced CounterPoint Music Festival is set to debut this September 28-29, 2012. Produced by C3 Presents and MCP Presents, the first year festival will be held just south of Atlanta on the Chattahoochee river. Details are light but according to the press release there will be camping options and multiple stages.
There’s no lineup yet, but a glance at the resume of the organizers gives a few hints at what to expect. MCP Presents puts on Camp Bisco, Lights All Night, and The Buku Project which heavily feature electronic and jam acts. C3 Presents handles Austin City Limits and Lollapalooza. This could mean some major artists at CounterPoint in the traditionally quiet season of September. And Austin City Limits takes place October 12-14, only two weeks after CounterPoint — sounds like a good opportunity for C3 Presents to double book some artists…
Ticket prices, travel packages, and the lineup will be announced in the coming weeks so stay tuned.
