Nebraska Crossroads Music Festival is a celebration of culture through world-class music in Omaha and Lincoln.

Taking place August 4-6 in Omaha and Lincoln, on August 5 on the UNL City Campus, the music festival features several free humanities events.

10 am – Storytelling Slam
Listen to stories of the festival artists, or share your own.

11 am – Artist Roundtable
There are always so many stories behind all the music at Crossroads. Hear the artists’ unique perspectives through an in-depth artist roundtable discussion. Ask questions and get to know the artists and where they – and the music that defines them – are really coming from.

1 pm – “The Seat Beside You” Q&A
“The Seat Beside You” is a video created to get to know the unique stories behind the more than 40,000 students who make up Lincoln Public Schools. The video will be screening all day, and this Q&A session will provide space and a forum for discussion.
