Festival by the River in Fries

Come to Fries enjoy a day of fun on the banks of the New River at the trailhead of the New River Trail State Park.

Enjoy music, food, games, pony rides, art and craft exhibits and items for sale. There is something for everyone.

Bring your lawn chairs, kick back, and enjoy the music. Sample the food. Let the “kids” play games and ride the ponies. Enjoy shopping the variety of vendors or take a ride down the river.

This festival highlights what is best in Southwest Virginia. It showcases all the things we take pride in: our traditional music, art, crafts, our region, where we live, work and play.

Experience our mountain heritage, listen to music by area musicians, all this while you are immersed in the natural beauty of Fries. Drink deeply from the culture and way of life of this unique town.
