Planet Bluegrass puts on two of the best music festivals around, but they are right in the heart of Lyons. In early summer the bluegrass festival is something people from all over the world come to. The cars line up for their camping spots for 2 days, and the 3 day festival is sold out before last years event ended. The folk life festival happens in late summer, and also brings incredible talent. My in-laws were able to see Norah Jones, front row, center, right after she had won the grammy for best break-out artist. She had committed to the festival before she hit it big, and still performed.
