FREE Music Festival!
We’re kicking off the 2025 festival season with a new date: Sunday, February 23rd from 10am – 8pm . Join us for a full day of music, storytelling, exhibitors, vendors, demonstrations, food & beverages — all at the AMP.
Live Music on Three Stages
The Lullaby of the Rivers Festival offers live music on three stages — the Front Porch Stage, the Rivers Stage and the Springs Stage. Gifted artists drawn from the treasure trove of talent right here in our local community, prominent performers from the region, and emerging young artists too will provide music and stories throughout the day.
The lineup includes cultural diversity and a variety of musical traditions such as folk, Americana, blues and gospel. Our performers are selected for their ability to perform and entertain, and also for their alignment with environmental causes and their ability to blend stories with music.
