In conjunction with the festival, WRFG will offer special programming that will include commentary on the history of the WRFG Peachblossom Bluegrass Festival, live in-studio music and interviews from some of the performers, as well as special guests associated with the event.  

The 37th Annual WRFG Peachblossom Bluegrass Festival is an indoor festival- -no need to worry about the weather, and there is plenty of parking.  We invite folks to bring their instruments for the always fun and popular parkin’ lot pickin’.  The festival is an “ALL AGES” event for the entire family. Folks can enjoy great music, food, crafts, and fellowship.  

All proceeds go to help cover operating expenses for Atlanta’s only volunteer, non-profit community radio station, WRFG 89.3FM.  For additional information or tickets, please call the WRFG office at 404-523-3471, or visit the WRFG website at www.wrfg.org.
