It’s been 51 years since Max Yasgur’s farm in upstate New York hosted one of the world’s most historic events. The Woodstock Music and Art Fair happened on August 15-18, 1969, and tales from the live music event still live on today despite the setbacks that marred it.
When people look back at Woodstock now, you rarely hear about the shortcomings. Instead, people choose to remember the hippie style, the anti-war chants, and not to forget, the great music. We have compiled some iconic photos from the iconic celebration that remind us why Woodstock lives on!
