## Resource

How does one of the biggest country music festivals in the country keep getting even bigger? We sat down with WeFest owner Matt Mithun to talk about the festival’s incredible growth, what it takes to bring in the biggest names in country music year after year, and how they keep giving fans a reason to come back to Detroit Lakes every summer. Matt also takes us behind the scenes of building a massive live event, creating the full WeFest experience, and keeping the festival fresh while holding onto the traditions fans love. Country music, big crowds, bigger plans, and a whole lot of stories from behind the stage. This is one conversation country fans won’t want to miss.
