Welcome to Stage 5 … it truly is “More than just a one mic stand.” Born in the Pecan Grove of the Cowley County, Kansas Fairgrounds in September of 1987. Hosting acoustic music enthusiasts from beginners to professionals .. with an emphasis on amateur acoustic musicians .. who otherwise would not get an opportunity to play on a stage at the prestigious Festival. A hip little campground stage built on the bed of a 1954 4100 Chevrolet 1 1/2 flatbed truck.
