Music Festival

Woodstock was a three-day music festival held in August of 1969 that attracted an estimated 400,000 people to Yasgur’s farm in upstate New York. While there were 30 acts performing on the Woodstock stage, the biggest draw of the weekend was undoubtedly the gathering of the music legends of the time, including Jimi Hendrix, Richie Havens, Santana, Janis Joplin, The Who and The Grateful Dead.

No one knows exactly how many people attended, but estimates range from 100,0to 500,000.

Woodstock is often credited with being the largest rock festival in history, with attendance estimates ranging from 100,000 to 500,000. Although estimates of Woodstock’s attendance are often cited, they’re based either on a single source or on research that doesn’t include all the attendees.

Over 3,0bands performed, and the festival lasted for three days.

Woodstock is often credited with being the biggest concert ever, attracting 400,000 people. However, the numbers are difficult to verify. Despite a lack of crowd control, the festival did not have enough security, and people were able to enter and leave the festival freely, meaning the actual number of attendees is unknown.

The Woodstock Music and Arts Fair was a three-day event that began on August 11969.

The Woodstock Music and Arts Fair attracted about 400,000 people to Yasgur’s farm in upstate New York. While it’s unknown how many people attended the Woodstock Music and Arts Fair, it is the estimated number of attendees to the Woodstock Music Festival that is often cited as the largest gathering in U.S. history.

The event was held at Watkins Glen International Speedway in upstate New York.

Woodstock's official attendance is estimated at between 300,000 and 400,000 attendees, though estimates have been as high as half a million. The actual crowd size is still debated, but Woodstock remains one of the most attended music festivals in U.S. history.

It was funded by the profits from the sale of tickets and advertising.

Woodstock had around 400,000 attendees, but that number was closer to 400,000 people who attended the four days of music and workshops. Woodstock had a lot more attendees than any other concert in history. So Woodstock was the largest concert ever, but it wasn’t the largest music festival ever.

In 197the event was re-branded as “Woodstock” and held at Max Yasgur’s farm in Bethel, New York.

Woodstock was a watershed moment in music history, and no one can argue that the concert’s impact on the music industry was monumental. While estimates vary, the crowd at Woodstock is said to have numbered between 400,000 and 500,000 people.

Attendees were there to hear music, but many also brought drugs.

Woodstock is often referred to as the largest concert ever, but that title is debatable. Woodstock certainly had a huge crowd, but it does not have the numbers backing it up. The most commonly accepted claim for the number of attendees at Woodstock is 400,000, but that number is based on estimates gathered after the fact.

Conclusion

Woodstock was a milestone moment in rock history, but it’s not the biggest music event in the world. In terms of overall attendance, the top spot goes to the 1980 Summer Olympics in Moscow, which saw more than 150,000 people from all over the world come to watch the sports action. A smaller but still significant crowd attended Woodstock, with an estimated 400,000 people in attendance.
