52nd Appalachian Festival, Celebrating Appalachian Tradition in Cincinnati, May 13 & 14, 2023
The Appalachian Festival is a Mother's Day weekend tradition in this region. Located along Cincinnati's scenic Ohio River at Coney Island, the island is transformed into an authentic mountain-life village celebrating the area's rich Appalachian heritage. This year the festival has a new layout, new stages, and new entertainment. We are featuring mountain music on three stages, with some of the greatest national bluegrass bands, storytellers from around the area, and dance troupes ranging from clogging to Native American Dance. Along with entertainment, we have crafters from around the area that make up our Appalachian Market, all items are hand-made by the artists.
