First Launched in 2007, the Roots N Blues N BBQ Festival features over 30 artists representing the genres of roots, blues, gospel, country, folk and soul. The line up includes international, national, regional and local artists. American Blues Scene Magazine called it “One of the most prominent festivals in the country!” As well as live music, fans enjoy delicious BBQ from local and national vendors. Included in the festival is a 1/2 marathon and 10K race on Saturday morning. Runners enjoy live music along the scenic course and enjoy BBQ, beer and a medal at the finish line. The festival is a fun, true, and unique celebration of music, food and culture.
