"The Festival is the highlight of our year."
~ ~Louis and Tamra~ ~
We invite you to join our friendly river community for terrific live music, beautiful riverfront camping, an open mic night, jams, workshops, kids activities, live art, art vendors, great food, wine tasting, and more.
The 4th Annual American River Music Festival is a celebration of music and moving water. The festival is September 17-19, 2010 on the banks of the beautiful South Fork of the American River in the Coloma-Lotus Valley one-hour east of Sacramento in the gold country of Northern California. Click here for directions.
The festival features Americana, Folk and Blues music performances throughout our river community. Music takes place on our riverfront main stage, in our three river front campgrounds, on our famous "gorge" whitewater river trip, on our guided riverfront hike, on our wine tasting trip, and fun eateries in the valley. Our shuttle system allows you to experience three full days without getting back into your car.
