It is mid-Michigan’s largest music festival and has featured national recording artists: ZZ Top, Alice Cooper, Crosby, Stills & Nash, Beach Boys, Gavin DeGraw, Third Eye Blind, Gladys Knight, Charlie Daniels, Martina McBride, Smokey Robinson and many more!

Always a lot of fun, rain or shine, the Common Ground Festival is a must see when in mid-Michigan in July!
