The event was intended as a commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the, a landmark festival that was held on August 15-17, 1969, in. For the first time since Woodstock '05, it was held once again in upstate New York, this time in, roughly 3 hours (187 miles/301 km) from and 2 hours (151 miles/243 km) from the site of the original event, and the attendance was approximately 600,000 over five days.

Much of the festival was streamed live via, and live coverage of the entire festival was available via and  (with the latter using camera positions shared with Twitch and ), the festival was also broadcast on radio by  and  stations (with  and  originating iHeartMedia's coverage). The size of the crowd was larger than concert organizers had planned for and by the second night many of the event policies were logistically unenforceable.

Facilities
The concert was performed at the, a county-owned, public-use airport located in , 56 minutes outside the state capital of.

A 12-foot (3.7 m) plywood and steel barrier was erected around the festival site to keep out those without tickets, however many people actually watched the concert from the roofs of nearby buildings and homes or atop the "Peace Wall". In addition to the two main stages, secondary venues were available. These included several alternate stages, a night-time rave tent, specialty "showcase stages" sponsored by (presenting Christian contemporary music and Christian rock artists) and  (presenting country performers), an emerging artists stage located inside an airplane hangar, and a comic-con organized by  (entitled "Wizard World at Woodstock") held inside a set of temporary tent structures.

The city of Queensbury itself, especially the downtown area and the commercial areas adjacent to the festival site, became a major draw for attendees, who patronized its bars, restaurants, and stores and stayed in its hotels and motels for the duration of the concert.
