The festival began in 1989 as a street fair to commemorate the 100th Anniversary of the Johnstown Flood. The event was renamed the National Folk Festival in 1990, and was held in Johnstown's Cambria City neighborhood from 1990 to 1992. In 1993, it was renamed the Johnstown FolkFest and eventually the festival moved from Cambria City to downtown Johnstown in 2004.[1] The festival emphasized acoustic music, but was expanded and renamed the Flood City Music Festival in 2009 to include other styles of music.[2]

gollark: How is "some weird battery" anything very interesting? My *watch* has a battery in it rated for 7 years or so.
gollark: Er, referenced, not linked to.
gollark: Well, you linked to the "crystal battery" thing, that's why.
gollark: Not *forever*.
gollark: It's not exactly particularly amazing that low-power batteries can run for a while.
