The inaugural Maricopa Music Festival attracted nearly 5,000 people and 15 bands to Copper Sky Regional Park Saturday, organizer Chrystal Allen O’Jon said.

But just wait until next year.

Whether it returns to the Maricopa park or another venue near the city, O’Jon said she wants to turn the festival into a three-day event.

“I’d like to divide it by genre,” O’Jon said. “The first day, it could be country; the second day, hip-hop. And maybe the third could be mellower, like jazz.”
