Official Statement from the Midwest Dreams Team

Hey St. Louis,

After much thought and consideration, we’ve made the difficult decision to postpone the festival originally planned for November 1, 2025.

This dream came from our deep love for music. But over the past few months, the amount of hate, slander, and threats of violence has taken a toll. As you’ve probably noticed, we have not promoted or shared anything for the postponed November 1 date — this was out of respect for the situation and due to the ongoing hate, false claims, and misinformation being spread. Our hearts simply haven’t been in the right place to deliver an event of this size with the passion and focus it deserved.

What many don’t see is what it truly takes to plan something of this magnitude — the time, cost, coordination, and countless hours behind the scenes. We took the leap because we believed St. Louis deserved something special, and we still believe that.

While this chapter pauses, our passion for music remains strong.

We’re excited to share that we’ll be returning on June 5, 2026 with a brand-new event at World Wide Technology Raceway — the Official Kickoff Party for the Bommarito Automotive Group 500 INDYCAR Series Race.

Headliners will be announced soon.

Two events are currently being planned, and all ticket holders will have access to both. We truly appreciate everyone who has stayed with us and supported us through this journey.
