The Woodstock Music and Art Fair was a historic event held at
Max Yasgur's 600 acre (2.4 km²) dairy farm in the rural town of
Bethel, New York from
August 15 to
August 18 1969. Bethel (Sullivan County) is 43 miles southwest of the town of
Woodstock, New York, which is in adjoining Ulster County. To many, the festival exemplified the
counterculture of the 1960s and the "
hippie era." Thirty-two of the best-known musicians of this time period appeared during the sometimes rainy weekend. Though attempts have been made over the years to recreate the festival, the original event has proven to be unique and legendary. It is widely regarded as one of the greatest concerts in music history and was listed on
Rolling Stone's 50 Moments That Changed the History of Rock and Roll.
