I have always believed that Shindig on the Green and the Mountain Dance and Folk Festival are signature events for Asheville and Western North Carolina. They are universally embraced as celebrations of the region’s rich artistic heritage, and every occasion brings to life musical traditions that have been handed down for generations. You will look a long time before you find an event that has a more devoted and far-flung following than these two joyous gatherings. They represent the best that Asheville has to offer.
