Besides always having a great lineup this festival is known for being somewhat unique in that it takes place in two different states as the city of Bristol straddles the Tennessee/Virginia line. Shows take place on 12 stages throughout the city's historic downtown area and this year will be extra special as the festival is celebrating a 25th anniversary in 2026. The big names announced for the initial lineup include headliner Sierra Ferrell as well as The War and Treaty, Marty Stuart & His Fabulous Superlatives, the Del McCoury Band and Braxton Keith.
Also revealed as appearing for the Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion silver anniversary celebration are Mon Rovia, the Creekers, Maggie Antone, Hannah Dasher, Kruse Brothers, Clay Street Unit, Darrell Scott String Band featuring Rob Ickes, Madeline Edwards, Franklin Jonas & the Byzantines, Acoustic Syndicate "Bristol Reunion," Jim Lauderdale & the Game Changers, Kruger Brothers, Larry Keel and Jon Stickley Duo, Mason Via, Scythian, Donna the Buffalo, Big Daddy Love, Holy Roller, Florencia & the Feeling and the Reedy River String Band. Lots of additional acts will be announced later as will the day and set times of each performer.
