Larry Martin discussed the Northwest Arkansas Bluegrass Festival on KHOZ’s Around The Table on Wednesday; the 49 annual festival is located at Beacon Park.

The festival is returning after being canceled last year. Martin said that was the first time it was canceled. The festival starts tonight at 6:30. There are four performances; there is one performance tonight and Friday and two on Saturday. One of the bands will be on with host Lisa Johnson on Friday.

Four bands will perform every day throughout the festival. There will be a concession stand. Anyone can bring lawn chairs as well as acoustic guitars for jam seasons. “It’s just a fun time for all,” Martin said.

The full interview with Martin is on Around The Table’s Facebook Page.
