The All Things Go Music Festival is an outdoor music festival held in Columbia, Maryland, a suburb of Baltimore and Washington, D.C. The festival was founded in 2014 as the All Things Go Fall Classic and is produced by the company All Things Go. The festival and company take their name from the Sufjan Stevens song "Chicago."
The festival was first held at the Union Market in Washington, D.C, expanding to the 15,000 capacity Yards Park in 2016. The festival moved to Columbia in 2021, and has since been held at the 20,000 capacity Merriweather Post Pavilion. The festival is cited for its support and inclusion of LGBT artists, and women-focused lineups. In 2024, the inaugural All Things Go New York City took place in Forest Hills Stadium, the same weekend as the Columbia edition. A third festival has been held in Toronto since 2025.
Its 2018 edition featured an all-women lineup, curated by Maggie Rogers and Lizzy Plapinger and headlined by Maggie Rogers, Billie Eilish, and Carly Rae Jepsen. Plapinger commented on how the festival was an opportunity to improve the gender imbalance. The Women's March partnered with the event and facilitated a discussion around gender inequality. In 2019, the All Things Go Fall Classic dedicated a day of the festival to female performers. The female-focused nonprofit, She is the Music, was a supporting partner.
