"Categorized by the fans as "The People's Festival", Hwy 30 started out in 2009 as a fundraiser for a local school, temporarily quadrupling the population of tiny Camas County. Since going full-time with the fest, it's only continued to grow in size, now attracting people from all 50 states and as far away as Northern Europe. But even as the acts get bigger and the crowd sizes swell, the name remains unchanged, with Hwy 30 representing the longest highway cross-country, connecting many of America's hardworking blue-collar towns."
