The Hickory Fest lineup is finalized

The Hickory Fest lineup is finalized - 25 acts will be performing during the three-day weekend in addition to 7 different workshops!! This year, we've also got 20 vendors to keep the shoppers happy!! Our Kid's Tent will be open during the day ... and the pool will also be open for those looking to "cool off". Advance ticket prices are still in effect - but only until July 31st. As always, tickets can be purchased on-line or at Garrison's Mens Shops in Wellsboro. Look for the final schedule to be posted on the website very soon!

Start the Festival Festivities off early with the Pre-Festival warm-up at the Wellsboro House Of Blues - 34 Charleston Street • Wellsboro, PA • 570-723-4687. The Wellsboro House will feature The Harris Brothers - 2009 Hickory Fest favorites - starting at 9pm! Come early for dinner and then enjoy the music and fun. I know that several other festival performers will be in town that evening for possible guest appearances, and this show will surely be a real treat!!

For those who want to combine work and pleasure, think about volunteering - We can still use a few folks to help out. If you want to help setup on Wednesday or Thursday, or teardown on Sunday, or anytime during the weekend -- let us know!! We can always use the extra hands. Volunteer sign-up is also easy on-line .

Get ready for some great bluegrass music and fun - during the day and after hours in the campground!!
Hope to see you there!!
