Since it’s inception in 2001, FloydFest has grown, exponentially yet sustainably, and in the words of a 2009 Jambase reviewer “manages to pull off a large-tier festival while maintaining a small-fest vibe.” We at Across-the-Way pledge to continue this level of quality event production and service and are spending these months of planning not only putting together the best artist line-up yet, but also responding to your survey suggestions and making every small improvement we can towards making 2010 your best overall festival experience ever.
As is our annual tradition, festival tickets are on sale now at discounted prices. We here at the festival office are counting the months, and looking forward to seeing you in July!
Breaking Ground : Transformation
Neither full nor Empty
"...there is no thought in all the universe which can come into being from nothing. Without the seed there could be no tree. The tree owes it's existence to the seed. The tree is the continuation of the seed. Before the seed penetrated roots into the earth, the tree was already present in the seed. If a thought is already present, how can it be born? The tree's nature is without birth."
Quote by the Buddha. Excerpt from Old Path White Clouds ~ Thich Nhat Hahn
FloydFest takes place on an 80 acre venue off the beautiful, historic, and refreshingly non-commercial Blue Ridge Parkway. The BRP celebrates it's 75th anniversary in 2010-learn more about this national treasure, and perhaps take the scenic route to FloydFest! {read more}
