Out there in Fayetteville Arkansas on August 25-28th is the Fayetteville Roots Festival<\/a> which offers some truly great music all over town.  This one looks like it is scattered all over the town instead of all in one location like most festivals are, so much like Westport Roots in Kansas City this one looks to be all over the place. It appears to be an indoor and outdoor function and it offers many other activities other than music. This is my first year to include this festival into my ongoing series of them so as I cover them in the future I’ll become more familiar with their operation. This piece is from their website:<\/p>\n

Fayetteville Roots Festival is a four-day urban music festival taking place August 25 – 28, 2016.  The mainstages will be hosted at multiple stages across Fayettviville including the Fayetteville Town Center, George\u2019s Majestic Lounge, Greenhouse Grille, Kingfish Dive Bar, Fayetteville Public Library and the Fayetteville Farmer\u2019s Market. Fayetteville Roots Festival\u2019s key components are music, food and community. The festival is a showcase of many of the elements that make Fayetteville a beloved cultural hot spot. The festival’s motto is \u201cA Mountain Town in its Natural State.\u201d<\/h5>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Festivals like this one bring great revenue to the local businesses and community organizations alike, people eat and stay at the hotels around the area that weekend. Since this one is so widespread and spread out it will be a big asset to their town for sure. I have been around this area before but have never attended this festival…yet…give me time…and HEY THIS festival stops for meal breaks! So folks I will post the entire schedule with links to the bands on here for you, and if you like what you see you can buy tickets HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n
