The Scene
For over a decade, the non-profit 80/35 festival has been filling downtown Des Moines with live music. Taking advantage of road touring artists that pass through on Interstates 80 and 35, this two-day fest always has a solid lineup of indie rock and other genres to delight the fans. As they say on their website: 'We believe in the power of music. To wake the spirit of the people and stir the street.'
