Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion music festival is an electrifying music experience that features the very best roots music.

Held annually in September in historic downtown Bristol TN/VA, the three-day music is amped to the beat of Appalachia’s past, present, and future.

The Festival digs down deep into the roots of the traditional Appalachian sound and lifts its branches to new heights.

It all happens in the heart of the Birthplace of Country Music.
