From the website:
OpenMusicFestival is a Drupal 7 distribution enabling site builders to create the next generation of music festival websites.
Artists are listed with heaps of metadata. Multiple venues are supported. A scheduling system ties it all together.
For small and medium-scale music festivals (Especially those with a small volunteer base), learning Drupal to the level necessary to build a quality site might not be attainable. This distribution tries to use a variety of top-shelf contrib modules to do the following:
I maintain several festival websites with legacy WordPress systems. A system like this would enable them to easily migrate to Drupal and enable Drupal to be a serious contender for this type of project. WordPress really has no serious support for music festivals last I checked — a project called WordTour, which I had previously used on one of these sites, is now unsupported by the author and a search for "festival" yields two pages of plugins that don't specifically cater to this use case. Further, no event listing plugin for WordPress is flexible enough to adequately allow for a complex use case such as this -- I asked for suggestions on the WordPress StackExchange and of the two answers I received, neither approach is anywhere near usable out-of-the-box (And don't be confused by the custom content type suggestion either -- WordPress' custom content types are an unholy mess that fills me with dread whenever the possibility of using them arises).

I've run PAReview extensively on it thus far and the only notes are with regards to Features code.
Thank you!
(Will add PAReview bonus after I do a couple quick tweaks to my codebase...)
