So, spring has finally sprung and just in time for the fresh green grass is festive season! Today, there's basically every kind of festival you can image: you have your booz fests, food fests, spring fests, and back by popular demand, a music fest like none other, The Roots Picnic.

Back for its 8th year, Saturday May 30th, the Philadelphia's home town icon, The Roots, is hosting the festival of the year. The awesome tunes, great eats and beautiful people make for an event like nothing you've experienced before.

Not only do you get a day of amazing music but since this fest is right in your backyard, Festival Pier, you won't have to smoothly invite your new lady friends back to your camp sight to help pop your tent (trust us, not a line you want to use).
