PIKEVILLE, Ky. (WYMT) – After last year Moonshine, Music, and Producers Festival brought hundreds of people to Pikeville to celebrate the culture and heritage of Appalachia, the city of Pikeville has announced that the festival will return in 2022.
The second part of the festival will see many local talent, craftsmen, and musicians come down town for three days of celebration and much fun.
Although last year’s game was a great success, Appalachian Wireless Arena’s Director of Special Events Kevin Roberts believes there will be more people attending this year.
“Last year we were on the verge of an epidemic, people are still scared, and everything is not open,” Roberts said. “Now, everything is open, people are not as scared as they used to be, and we have that ability, you know we can go out, we can mix, and that’s what we want. We want people to come back together as a group and be able to enjoy security.”
The 2022 Moonshine, Music, and Producers Festival is scheduled for September 8-10. You can visit the Pikeville City Tourism website for more information.
