Federal Frenzy returns with two days of entertainment
YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio (WKBN) — It's Federal Frenzy weekend in downtown Youngstown, and for the first time in its 11-year history, the YSU-sponsored event is a two-day affair.
There will be a total of 31 bands at four venues over two nights.
The Youngstown-based band Potentia opened night one of Federal Frenzy, which was held at Penguin City Brewing. Saturday night, Federal Frenzy moves to the heart of downtown.
'Every year for Federal Frenzy, we went to go bigger and better than the year before and our solution this year was to make it two days. Get more bands, more vendors, more people,' said organizer Ally Wright.
Saturday, Federal Frenzy begins at 2:15 p.m. with the band NegativeZen on an indoor stage at The Federal. There will be four stages downtown — two indoor and two outdoor.
The last band starts at 10 p.m. It's Ultra Q on the main outdoor stage at West Federal and Phelps.
