RiverCity Music Festival

January 7th, 8th & 9th 2011

Portland, Or at the Red Lion - Jantzen Beach

The event is structured to offer approximately 70% bluegrass music and 30% acoustic Americana, such as folk music, Texas swing, Gospel and Country music. We have established a tradition of great performers at each and every festival. The RiverCity Bluegrass Festival made its debut in January, 2005.

The RiverCity Music Festival is an interactive, community oriented event with many attendees bringing their families and instruments to play (referred to as jamming) in small groups throughout the Festival. There is always something to hear. Workshops for those who want to learn from the masters are offered at no additional charge.

About Portland, OR

As Portland, Oregon’s 25-year vision plan elegantly notes "vibrant, diverse neighborhoods are home to all manner of people, but it’s the other things that give a place its soul – the cafes and markets, the art, parks, plazas, vistas and sanctuaries." Portland’s districts do indeed possess distinct personalities, which is perhaps unusual for a relatively small city. The artistic Pearl District, sophisticated Nob Hill and bohemian Hawthorne are just a few neighborhoods that consistently draw enthusiastic crowds of visitors.

Within these districts, the "Rose City’s" culture simmers in hip coffeehouses, Native American art galleries, ubiquitous bookstores and lively brewpubs. Like much of Portland, these areas encourage exploration on foot.

Rivaling Portland, Oregon’s manmade art are the spectacular masterpieces by Mother Nature. Crowning the city’s skyline is Mount Hood, the tallest peak in Oregon’s Cascade Mountain Range. Within the metro area are 37,000 acres of parks and green spaces that include sizeable chunks of prime downtown real estate, fabulous rose gardens, waterfront promenades and more.
