📣Tickets will go on sale for the 3rd Annual Festival of The Red on FEBRUARY 1ST📣
Tickets will be priced at $55 each (same as last year). This price includes your entry to all 3 days of music (Friday-Sunday) and a primitive camping spot at Natural Bridge Campground (this is the location of the festival).
Camping spots are available on a first come, first served basis. The spots shown on the campground website will not be valid at our festival due to space. Again, these are PRIMITIVE camping spots meaning electric is not available. There is a shower house and restrooms on the property.
There are many different cabins available to rent through various cabin companies in the Red River Gorge area if camping is not for you.
Dates: June 26-28, 2020
Location: Natural Bridge Campground (90 L & E Railroad Place in Slade, KY)

We have been positively overwhelmed with musicians contacting us to be on the 2020 lineup. The hardest part of having a festival is telling talented musicians that we can’t book them. However, the 2020 lineup is fully booked!
We will be releasing the lineup and ticket sales on February 1st! Be sure to watch for the drop! Y’all don’t want to miss this!
*Booking begins for the following year each fall. Please submit a link to an original song to lg@festivalofthered.com with info on upcoming shows at the time of submission. Again, we will start booking for 2021 in the fall, so please send your info then.*

R&B Country Kitchen were one of our stage sponsors from 2019. They are located in Clay City, KY and have some mighty fine country cooking! They have live music in the bar portion of their restaurant as well as bike nights! Like and follow their page for updates on events and specials!
Go try the fried green tomatoes, fried banana peppers, and fried pickles! Your arteries may hate you but your stomach will love you! Tell them we sent ya!
*If you or your business are interested in sponsoring the 2020 FoTR, message us here or contact us via email at chase@festivalofthered.com!*
Thank you so much.
This festival was created to highlight all of our wonderful local musicians that come from Eastern KY and nearby states.
We host this festival in Slade, KY which is home to the Red River Gorge and Natural Bridge State Park. The hiking, climbing, and recreating is known world-wide and we wanted to add a music festival to that.
Slade thrives because of locally-owned and operates businesses. This is our home and we are so blessed to be a locally-owned and operated event.
Do you visit the RRG or NBSP? What’s your favorite thing to do here?

Besides Festival of The Red, my favorite thing to do is backwoods camping. Off of “official” trails.
