The 2021 music festival season in Michigan has shaped up as a mixed bag: Some summer events already have canceled for the second year in a row, other festivals are moving full steam ahead with ticket sales, and still others remain in limbo.
With the year-long COVID pandemic continuing to muddy the waters for touring artists and festival organizers, the roster of Michigan music festivals seems to change weekly as previously scheduled events get canceled or postponed.
Potential capacity restrictions, difficulties in booking artists who haven’t committed to touring yet and other concerns have left many festivals looking ahead to 2022 or debating the merits of moving ahead as scheduled.

LANSING The Lansing City Attorney s Office is not complying with Attorney General guidelines and the Freedom of Information Act when fulfilling public records requests.
The city has extended FOIA response deadlines by not counting one day per week as a business day under FOIA because of citywide furloughs that have been in effect since January.
The FOI Act allows up to 15 business days for a public body to respond with either a written denial, the requested records or a request for a good faith deposit to begin processing the request.
Lansing has extended that to 18 business days, claiming the city s temporary four-day work weeks allow them to do so.
