Get the app

Can’t keep track of all the good stuff? Let the BLVDIA app do the heavy lifting — from set times and food vendors to beer lists and fest maps, it’s your go-to guide for the weekend. Pro tip: Last year’s app won’t update, so make sure to delete and download the new version, then save it to your home screen for easy access.
