After 28 years, the creator of the Deep Ellum Arts Festival has announced the annual event is ending.
PUBLISHED 1:57 PM CDT Sep. 19, 2022DALLAS — The Deep Ellum Arts Festival is ending after 28 years in the popular Dallas entertainment district.
Breedlove showed Spectrum News 1 one of his festival badges, adding, “my favorite part of it is it says ‘entertainer.’” “I just found something about it that was very special to me,” he said. Stephen Millard, the founder of the festival, tells Spectrum News 1 that he ended the annual event largely because of the economic conditions and general security concerns.
Millard says his concern lies with having an event that draws in more than a 100,000 people and the potential risks of there being a mass shooting. Lee says the event’s brought economic growth to the entertainment district, playing a role in its rapid growth in the last decade.
