super fun time and a true music lover’s paradise and now there will be even
more to see and do while visiting the festival.
Lancaster Roots and Blues is adding more shows on Saturday and Sunday
afternoons to accommodate the continuing growth of the festival. In addition to
the music and art people attend the festival to stroll the downtown Lancaster downtown
area to enjoy the ambiance of the pre-Revolutionary War architecture, the
oldest continuously operating market in the U.S. and our many great
restaurants.
While many national level artists grace our stages, significantly the local music scene has blossomed into one of the most vibrant in the country and will be represented well on this late winter weekend.
