The vibrant spring music festival Gross Domestic Product will return April 15 and head for the first time to Hoyt Sherman Place in Des Moines. The event is produced by the nonprofit Greater Des Moines Music Coalition, which founded the festival in 2006 to showcase some of the diverse talent Central Iowa has to offer.
This year’s lineup includes several notable names — the Envy Corps, B. Well and Geneviève Salamone, among others — alongside emerging voices. Starting at 4 p.m., the pre-party kicks off the festival at Big Grove Brewery with local DJ CDisiac. See the full schedule and buy tickets online or at the door.
