WE Fest has been a fixture up at the Soo Pass Ranch in Detroit Lakes (northwest of the Twin Cities, about 4 and a half away from Rochester) for the past 37 years. A release noted that WE Fest will include many of the favorite elements from the past as well as improvements to the festival grounds and fresh festival attractions. Most notably, this year's festival features an expanded general admission area which will bring fans 200 feet closer to the stage.

Having been around for 37 years, WE Fest is an iconic festival-- and its look has changed a bit since it first hosted its first concert back in 1984.
