The 1990 City Stages was the 2nd annual edition of "Birmingham's World-Class Music Festival", held June 15-17, 1990. 115 acts performed on 7 stages. The ticket price remained the same, $3 per day or $5 for the weekend, and the estimated attendance was 75,000. A crew from MTV filmed a segment at the festival.
In addition to the music, City Stages 1990 featured a "Sun Strut" street parade, the Alabama Folklife Festival with numerous workshops and demonstrations, a children's festival with learning activities and special museum tours, an "Art-on-Site" visual arts exhibition, six architect-designed festival gateways, City Stages Jazz Camp for school students and a songwriter's workshop and showcase.
