More incredible live music at AmeriFest 250! 🇺🇸🎶

If you haven’t heard yet, AmeriFest 250: An Original Birthday Celebration for America is coming to Dan Nicholas Park on June 13 featuring live music, family activities, food trucks, and a spectacular drone show to close out the night. It’s a full day of fun, music, and community you won’t want to miss!

Taking the stage at 5:45 PM, we’re excited to welcome The Local Boys! Based in Charlotte, this Bluegrass and Americana band has spent more than 20 years honoring the roots of traditional music while putting their own spin on a timeless sound. From old-time and bluegrass to country and rock ’n’ roll influences, their performances bring energy, authenticity, and a deep appreciation for the music’s history.

Having played across the country at festivals like MerleFest and other well-known events, The Local Boys know how to connect with a crowd, and their passion for storytelling and musicianship shines in every performance.

Come early, stay late, and experience it all - from great music and free activities to delicious food and an unforgettable finale. Find the full schedule and event details at www.rowancountync.gov/AmeriFest250.
