BLUE RIDGE ROCK FEST

Organizers announced Friday they’re relocating the Blue Ridge Rock Festival from Pittsylvania County to the Virginia International Raceway (VIR) in Halifax County after facing challenges in 2021, including long lines for parking, camping, permits and vendors.

Jonathan Slye tells us he will still be involved, but will work more on scheduling talent and marketing.

Hundreds of thousands of dollars are owed to Pittsylvania County for its involvement in the Blue Ridge Rock Festival, according to county leaders.

Extra food from campers and vendors at the Blue Ridge Rock Festival this past weekend did not go to waste.

The Blue Ridge Rock Festival wrapped up Sunday after a long weekend of rock n’ roll music that was not without its problems.

The sold out Blue Ridge Rock Fest began Thursday in Pittsylvania County.

Pittsylvania County leaders unanimously approved what’s being billed as the second-largest rock festival in North America Tuesday night.
