Director
Salida Colorado is located in the heart of the South Central Colorado Rockies and has the
distinction of being one of "America’s best art towns", according to The 100 Best Art Towns in
America, by author John Villani. White water rafting, ‘Fourteener’ mountain hiking, horseback riding and area
hot springs, world class river fishing and the charm of a small mountain town with 15 art galleries, unique
boutiques and restaurants make Salida a popular vacation spot.
The 2018 Music Stage features the best of local blues and folk musicians. Band On The Fence,
Tullis Blues, Doc & Kit, Beans and Wheels, and more! See On Stage Music
for schedules.
The festival is in a picturesque willow tree filled park with lush green lawns on the banks of
the Arkansas River,
in
the downtown Historic District. Colorful kayakers, rafters and fly fishermen can be seen from the festival site
and enhance the mood of the festival. Families enjoy clean river beaches, a playground, volleyball and picnic
tables.
