Festival Grounds At RFK Campus - Washington, District of Columbia

Stefan Kowalewski

This was my first time visiting Festival Grounds at RFK and I wasn't sure what to expect - I was going for a music festival, Project Glow. Turns out the grounds are an old RFK parking lot...

The Project Glow festival was nicely laid out, plenty of space, vendors, bathrooms. Project Glow had three stages that were positioned so that you could enjoy each stage without music bleed from the other stages. The VIP area did have some bleed between two stages, which was interesting.

Looking forward to going back next year.

Attended the festival grounds for the Natl Cannabis Festival. Highly suggested to pay for transport option. Walking from parking to entrance is a good mile on a breezy day but on a hot day, yikes. Highlights: Snow caps & peach cobbler “fresh out the oven”.?

1st Off - all the bands, & artist showed out! Wu Tang & Redman was true to form! My 1st Nat'l Cannabis Festival. The crowd wasn't overwhelming. The atmosphere was calm & laid back.

I only had a major issue with connectivity. No signals out in the open of a field in DC is beyond me 2024. No body should ever have to pay $38.12 for a 2 drinks & 2 beef patties! Stop charging the vendors so much to be out there.

We in the parking lot & fair grounds getting charged stadium seating food prices out here. I think you can do a bit better RFK.

I had an amazing time at the Project Glow 2023 music festival at the Festival Grounds at RFK! The lineup of DJs was top-notch and the venue was perfect for the occasion.

The festival grounds were well-maintained and the staff were friendly and helpful. The sound system was top-notch and the lighting effects added to the atmosphere of the event. The main stage was perfectly situated to provide a great view of the performers from all angles.

The drink vendors were plentiful but a little overpriced. The lines were never too long and they offered a variety of options.

The only downside was the transportation situation. We had to rent busses and shuttle vans to get us out to the Festival Grounds from North Central D.C.

Overall, I would highly recommend attending an event at the RFK Festival Grounds, especially if you're a fan of the line-up. The Project Glow festival was a fantastic experience and I can't wait to attend again in the future!

This hosted the project glow 2022 and the Broccoli city. The events were both exciting.

Even if you can drive to the grounds getting to your location is a very long walk. But there's plenty of level concrete surfaces where chairs and steady walkers should be ok. Plenty of space for large crowds.

Came to Project Glow 2024. Was surprised how well they organized the festival ground. It’s safe & clean & organized. 5 stars

Horrible venue. I do not know why broccoli city festival continues to use this for festival grounds. It is literally a parking lot. It is a long, arduous trek from the entrance to the festival entrance. There is no designated Uber drop off/pick up which makes it very hard to get to/from the festival. Inside the festival there is limited seating and the heat is exacerbated by the asphalt. Would give it zero stars. They need to stop holding events in the space or renovate to make it more comfortable for two day events
