The Heartbeat of Rhythms on the Rio

Rhythms on the Rio is more than just a music festival; it's a celebration of the rich cultural tapestry weaved through the sounds of bluegrass, funk, reggae, and country music. What sets this festival apart from the rest is its deep-rooted commitment to its community. The South Fork Music Association, the driving force behind Rhythms on the Rio, is a non-profit entity that uses its funds to stage live music concerts for the entire family and promote music education for children. It's an embodiment of how music can be a catalyst for change and growth.

The Lineup – A Harmonious Gathering

The festival's organizers have a knack for curating a diverse lineup that appeals to a broad audience while maintaining a unique identity. This year's festival features The California Honeydrops, Daniel Donato's Cosmic Country, ALO, The Lil Smokies, ShadowGrass, Diggin Dirt, The Fretliners, Armchair Boogie, and Cousin Curtiss, with additional artist announcements dropping soon! This eclectic mix of national and local talent ensures that each festival edition is a new adventure in music discovery.

The range of music is matched only by the scenic beauty of the festival grounds. The Del Norte site offers an oasis of shade trees and sprawling fields. The Rio Grande River's accessibility further adds an element of serenity and adventure, with opportunities for water sports or simply soaking in nature's grandeur.
