Location

The festival is held at Grayson Highlands State Park, just off U.S. Hwy. 58 between Damascus and Independence, Virginia. The park’s website has much valuable information at www.dcr.virginia.gov/state-parks/grayson-highlands.shtml. You’ll find directions, weather and information about camping, though campsites fill up very early. The park phone is (276) 579-7092. Cell phone service is spotty, but new US Cellular towers have improved service for its customers.
