Bigger Than They Thought

In the beginning, the plan was to hold it in the summer arts colony called Woodstock, which was a favorite of many musicians. However, the first festival location was Wallkill, New York. When the locals found out how big it was going to be, they expressed objections to it. Despite the planning, they were not prepared for the 400,000 attendees that ended up coming. They only had 50,000 people in mind!

No Place For Discrimination

At Woodstock, discrimination had no place. Anyone, regardless of their race, gender, and age, could come. The parents took their children with them. This little one looked especially excited about being there! How cute is that? Not only did children attend the festival, but there were actually some babies born there and then. Amazing right?
