Doc-Watson.pngPresented by Mast General Store and now in its 18th year, MusicFest 'N Sugar Grove features world-renowned recording artists as well as extremely talented up-and-coming artists performing what Doc Watson termed as "traditional plus."

Headliners slated for this family-friendly weekend include Doyle Lawson and Quicksilver, the Krüger Brothers, Town Mountain, the Snyder Family Band, Amantha Mill, Savannah Smith and many more.

Since its inception in the late ’90s, the festival’s twofold mission remains the same — to support community development in Watauga County, North Carolina and to honor Doc Watson, a Grammy award-winning singer, songwriter, flatpicking legend and 2004 recipient of the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award.

Amantha-Mill-in-Museum-1.pngWell-known names and rising stars will perform on two outdoor stages and within the Doc and Merle Watson Folk Art Museum (located on the festival grounds) throughout the weekend. They will perform the sounds of Appalachia that Watson popularized around the world, covering genres including bluegrass, country, folk, gospel, blues and more.

Come and listen to the music and meet the artist in an intimate festival setting. Food, refreshments, crafts and artwork will be available for purchase by local vendors.
