 SOHO 2012
June 1 & 2
Downtown Springfield
SOHO Saved!
SOHO Music Festival has been a part of Springfield Summers for 8 years now. Alice @ 97.7 has proudly been a part of SOHO for 4 years now and it's become one of our favorite events of the year. Not only does SOHO support live, local music, but it also supports local charity. Through your support of SOHO, over $35,000 has been raised for the Mini O'Beirne Crisis Nursery.
 Just as recently as last week, SOHO was threatened with a 9:30pm sound curfew which would have severely impacted the festival's attendance and fundraising efforts.
Thanks to the outpour of support for SOHO from so many people, Springfield Mayor Mike Houston has withdrawn his curfew of 9:30 for amplified music and will let SOHO go on as planned this year.
We came together for a common cause and our voices were heard!
The Mayor has said that future events, not just a select few, but all events will have to have a 10:30pm curfew for amplified music.
