The Square Lake Film & Music Festival is known as one of the summer secrets of the upper Midwest, featuring Minnesota music, independent short, experimental and animated films. This is a rain or shine outdoor event. We show films in our hay barn-converted-to-theater during the transition time between bands.The festival is located on a 25-acre farm near the beautiful St. Croix Valley and within a few miles of the scenic Gateway Bike Trail. Attendees are encouraged to bike to the festival and receive a steep ticket discount for doing so. Limited camping is available on site at no charge.
