We've taken many a photograph at past Eaux Claires Music & Arts Festivals, as all kinds of fantastic people converge upon the Chippewa Valley from around the world. Enjoy a handful of music fans who seem extra-at-home at Eaux Claires.

Sometimes it's hard to contain their excitement.

Music is serious business.

They paint with all the colors of the humid Wisconsin wind.

At music festivals across America, a hero appears whenever we need him most.

To be fair, this noble hero appears at all music festivals everywhere.

Some of the fans have their own bands.

Sweaty scruff and Pepsi, y'all.

Eaux Claires was made for romance.

Their strength and balance are second to none.

They had the time of their life.
They had the time of their life. They never felt this way before.

They stay true to their roots.

When representing Wisconsin, no punches are pulled.

Hush and be still. The Eaux Claires Spirit Animal quietly steps from behind a birch tree and welcomes you to the merch tent.
