In what year was the second Woodstock festival, Woodstock '94, held?

The story behind the answer

The second Woodstock festival, Woodstock '94, was held in 1994.

Woodstock '94 took place from August 12 to August 14, 1994, near Saugerties, New York. It was organized to mark the 25th anniversary of the original festival and featured a mixture of established performers and newer alternative-rock acts.

The lineup included Nine Inch Nails, Green Day, Aerosmith, Cypress Hill, Bob Dylan, and Crosby, Stills & Nash. Heavy rain made the grounds muddy, leading to the event’s nickname, “Mudstock.”

Woodstock '94 is distinct from Woodstock '99, which was held in Rome, New York, and became associated with crowd disorder and violence. The 1994 festival is generally remembered for its rain, mud, and broad generational lineup rather than the later event’s unrest.
