Back to the Garden 1969 - The Woodstock Experience at Cohoes Music Hall

Half a million people came to a small dairy farm in upstate New York.
They came to be a part of what would become an historic event.
They came to be a part of “a gathering of the tribes.”
They came to be a part of the music.
They came to “the Garden.”

Come with us… back to the music.
Come with us… back to the magic
Come with us… Back To The Garden.

Back to the Garden 1969 - The Woodstock Experience is the premier tribute to the Woodstock era you won't want to miss!
