Set times and stages survive for the full weekend. Contemporary reporting places the site in the Yellow Lot at 1 NRG Park; no held production map for 2016 confirms the lot. Eighth annual edition. Organisers announced the move from Eleanor Tinsley Park to NRG Park on May 29, 2016 after weeks of storms saturated the downtown park; the dates were kept and tickets honoured at the new site.
