http://lineup.floydfest.com/At FloydFest, we believe in the WHOLE SUM Festival experience- which is what makes our event more than just a music festival- it’s a total vacation package. Our beautiful Appalachian Mountain venue lends itself to breaking away between sets for a hike, bike ride, even a nearby float trip.
Our Children’s Universe features performances, workshops, play equipment, and basically enough FUN STUFF to keep the kids entertained (and educated!) for four entire days.
The Healing Arts area, beautifully showcased within the ‘Flower of Life’ art installation, is ‘hands-on’ healing ranging from traditional massage to the more nuanced alternatives, as well as morning yoga classes and other natural refreshers.
The Teen Scene provides a space and outlet for our ‘rising adults’ to both get space and make healthy connections, and our Workshops and Panels are educational, informative and engaging platforms for the exchange of information and ideas.
Tickets are available for the entire four day festival or in a variety of other day packages. To view all the ticket options and purchase online, visit:
