“HFStival RETURNS TO D.C. AFTER 13 YEARS
I.M.P. AND NATIONALS PARK PRESENT THE HFStival SATURDAY, SEPT. 21
LOTTERY FOR TICKETS TO THE LEGENDARY FESTIVAL BEGINS NOW THROUGH JUNE 16

Starting in 1990, the HFStival was a yearly monster of an event that sold out quickly and featured the absolute best artists of that era each year, like The Ramones, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Jane’s Addiction, No Doubt, Beck, Oasis, blink-182, and The Offspring.
The Washington Nationals and I.M.P. are reviving HFStival to cater to the recent explosion of acts from that era. (more…)
