Bluegrass in the Grove Fest

On Saturday, June 13th, Bluegrass in the Grove will take over the grounds of Poplar Grove from 11am to 8pm of live bluegrass, folk music, and traditional dance. Hosted by Dear MariBella & the Pigkickers the event will bring a dynamic lineup of local and out of town bands: including Dear MariBella & the Pigkickers, Screaming Bridge, Carolina Connection, Folkstone Stringband, Massive Grass, Sail Away Ladies, Pickety Split, Travis Watts & the Mountain Blessings, Carson Peters and Iron Mountain, and Mason Via.
There will also be traditional dance performances and interactive workshops by Cape Fear Contra Dancers and Cripple Creek Dance Studio.
It’s more than just a music festival—Bluegrass in the Grove is a celebration of heritage, family, and the timeless connection between music and place with a mission to keep the spirit of North Carolina folk music alive.
