Experience a perfect Labor Day Weekend on the banks of the Yadkin River being surrounded by mountain music, dance, food and beautiful scenery.  The festival begins Friday evening with dancing and music followed by full day of music competition, dance, children’s activities and demonstrations on instrument making.

The weekend will end with a free Sunday concert featuring an all-star line up of folk, blues, gospel, old-time and bluegrass musicians including the Harris Brothers, Moon Mullins, Bobby Hicks, and the Kruger Brothers.

Friday and Sunday are free.  Advanced tickets for Saturday are only $5 and admission at gate is $10. Come for a day or camp for the weekend.  When is the last time you sat on the banks of a mountain stream with music echoing throughout the hills around you.
