Our festival celebrates all types of regional roots music, and each year we feature something new and exciting. From fiddle, guitar and banjo playing, to singer songwriters, blues, gospel and old time, we offer something for everyone with a different line-up each year.
Elkin, North Carolina is a great place to hang out. Our downtown has 4 music venues. Each is a different experience: a tiny pub, an outdoor garden amphitheater, an old tobacco warehouse, and a newly renovated historic theater that offers live music every Friday and Saturday night in downtown Elkin.
For the 5th Annual Elkin Roots Music Fest (2018), we've chosen the Historic Reeves Theater located in downtown Elkin. It was newly renovated from a twin theater into a funky live music venue, with a bar and cafe, and it opened in December of 2017. (www.reevestheater.com)
There is plenty to do in Elkin, as we are in the Yadkin Valley, surrounded by wineries, trails, and state parks:
We are associated with the Foothills Arts Council of Elkin, North Carolina and recommend you also visit the Surry Old Time Fiddler's Convention website for other music events in Surry County.
