Culture Guide 2019, Pg. 3 Counting Down to Deutschtown Music Festival with Co-Organizer, Ben Soltesz By Lauren Stauffer NSC: This is the 7th Annual Deustchtown Music Festival (DMF), is there any- thing new this year that neighbors and attendees can expect to see? DMF: Yes, we’ve partnered with Allegheny Center Alliance Church to add a Sunday Gospel Brunch show at the Park Stage featuring their dance and choir teams, as well as, Pittsburgh native Joy Ike and more from 9a-noon. Plus, the Grand Hall at the Priory will join us for the first time for all ages shows both festival days where adult guests can also go check out Pennyslvania’s smallest bar inside the hotel at The Monk’s Bar. NSC: Last year DMF diverted 84% of festival waste from landfills, will DMF continue to be a Zero Waste event this year? How can guests help the festival be 100% waste free? DMF: We’re working with Pennsylvania Resources Council again to continue being a Zero Waste Event. Guests will see volunteers at Zero Waste stations to dispose of recyclable, compostable, and trash only materials. If you get food from any of the food truck vendors, all of their food and beverage containers and utensils are compostable! They go in the green top compostable bins. NSC: Will there be a festival bus again this year? If so, will the route remain the same? and is it accessible for those with disabilities? DMF: There will be two free festival shuttles again for Saturday visitors 11am-midneght and in addition, the fancy South Side Nite Rider shuttle on Fri- day from 5-10:30pm! Routes are the same for both days. Anyone with acces- sibility needs please give us a call so we can reserve you a parking space as close to the festival as possible. More travel/parking info for both days is on the festival’s website, including route map. NSC: For first time festival goers, any suggestions to help make their day in Deutschtown the most enjoyable? DMF: We encourage using public transportation, like Port Authority’s buses or the T, to get here. If you’re inclined to bike, we’ll have plenty of bike racks thanks to Bike Pittsburgh. There are two info tables located on Foreland St. by the Main Stage and by the Park Stage to get more info and Beer Garden Wrist- bands. Wristbands are required to purchase beer in the beer garden near the Main Stage. The wristbands are $5 and all proceeds go towards the musicians playing at the festival. NSC: What stages or areas should families with young kids look for fami- ly-friendly programming? DMF: On Saturday from 12-7pm at the Park Stage there will be ongoing activ- ities for families beyond music including a tropical obstacle course and slide, whimsical performers and jugglers, face painting, Citiparks Roving Art Cart and more. The schedule is on the website under Food/Activities. NSC: You know what, I’ll also include the Park Activites with the festival sched- ule in the Culture Guide too. Anything else neighbors and attendees should know about this year’s festival? DMF: Download the Sched app on your phone to create your own itinerary ahead of time or check for what’s coming up next in between any of the 300+ shows.
