This one made us REALLY proud.

When we did the final sweep of the grounds on Monday morning, we could not have been more proud of each and every one of you.

We picked up one handful of small pieces of garbage. That’s it. ONE.

Our reusable cups were more than just a cup — they were an outward commitment from us at The Great Get Together to reduce waste and, most importantly, leave our park cleaner than we found it.

And you all showed up for that commitment.

A HUGE shoutout to our trash heroes, our volunteers, and every single person who picked up, carried out, and did their part.

We came together, we had a hell of a day, and we left the grounds better than we found them.

That’s another strength in our community of Plainfield. And that’s something to be proud of. ❤️

Did you have fun at 2026 The Great Get Together Music & Arts Festival

We sure did! And more than anything, we left feeling fulfilled—grateful, inspired, and incredibly proud of what our community created together.

Thank you to everyone who showed up, danced, listened, created, volunteered, sponsored, played, poured, and helped make the day what it was. You made The Great Get Together something truly special.

And if you thought that was something… we’re just getting started.

The Great Get Together was the beginning of something bigger—bringing people together through music, arts, creativity, and community.

Follow along with our non-profit The Common Ground Cooperative as we keep building, creating, and bringing more to our community throughout the year.

Built by Community. Driven by Arts & Music.

🌱 Something bigger is in bloom.

🌦️ MOTHER NATURE IS THROWING CURVE BALLS & HOMERUNS 😎

The past few days left us a little soggy, so we’ve made a few updates to our festival layout to protect our treasured park grounds. 💚

Check out the NEW festival map! Some things have shifted, but the music, makers, food, b**r and good times are all still right where they need to be.

We’re rolling with it, embracing these sunny skies, and getting ready to GET TOGETHER!

See you tomorrow! 🎶🍻🌳

Another HUGE thank you to our incredible stage sponsors. ❤️

We truly can’t thank these businesses and individuals enough for the intentional support, trust, and belief they’ve shown in The Great Get Together.

Their support means so much more than putting a name on a banner. They’re helping us create a day filled with live music, art, connection, and experiences that bring our community together.

This festival started with a simple idea: that our community deserves more opportunities to gather, experience great music, support local artists, and make memories together.

Having sponsors who believe in that vision and choose to invest in it is something we don’t take for granted.

Thank you for trusting us, supporting us, and helping us make The Great Get Together happen. We are so grateful to have you alongside us. ❤️🎶
