(DATE1/4/2024; Fletcher, North Carolina): In response to the enthusiasm of more than 4,000 attendees of the 2023 Asheville Celtic Festival, the winter indoor/outdoor event is expanding to two days in February 2024. Held at the WNC Agriculture Center at 761 Boylston Highway, Fletcher, just outside of Asheville and adjacent to the Asheville Regional Airport, the fourth annual Asheville Celtic Festival will take place Saturday, February 17 through Sunday, February 18.
“Our goal when we developed the festival was to bring the Celtic spirit of the Seven Nations to the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina while offering an indoor/outdoor event during the winter months,” said Mark Ferguson, co-founder. “The response has been phenomenal since the start, with attendance increasing every year. We’re thrilled to expand to two days in 2024, and tickets are already going fast.”
Entertainment at the family-friendly event will include live Celtic music from bands like ALBANNACH from Glasgow Scotland, SYR from Columbia S.C., and Unspoken Tradition from Cherryville, N.C., and more! Other entertainment will include live full-armored sword fighting at the castle by The Warriors of Ash-sword school. The awakening sounds of the Grandfather Mountain Pipe and Drum Band, as well as the Knoxville Pipe and Drum Band will ceremoniously open the event at 11 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday.
