Madipalooza was held on Saturday April 13, 2013 on Festival Lawn and included many fun activities. Starting at 1 p.m., the event included inflatables, carnival games, giveaways, spray-on tattoos, a rock-wall, and food eating contests. There were tons of food and beverages for students to snack on, like lemonade, cookies, soft pretzels, pulled pork sandwiches, wraps and churros. Madipalooza also had seven bands perform throughout the day, including Joe Robinson, Ella Mae Bowen, The Last Royals, Many Nights Ahead, The Lonely Biscuits, Foxy Shazam and Shwayze. This free event held on a beautiful late afternoon was a great way for students to spend their Saturday.
