Business Summary:
MerleFest began as a way to raise funds for the WCC gardens and continues to be the largest fundraiser for the rural NC community college.
The four-day festival features music on more than 14 stages, workshops, open-mic sessions, contests, children’s activities, food, shopping, and more. MerleFest is more than a music festival, it’s a total experience in celebration of the music of Doc and Merle Watson and the rich musical and cultural heritage of our region and beyond. Location:
