Roanoke Festival in the Park is an event produced by Roanoke Festival in the Park, Inc., a non profit operating in Roanoke Va. The event began its run in 1969 and has continued annually over the memorial day weekend since then.
We would like to thank the City of Roanoke, Va. for the years of support and the use of so many city facilities and properties. We are very excited to return to the newly designed Elmwood Park and the new performance space this year and believe the quality of this year’s Festival will reflect this wonderful park. Our invaluable Corporate Sponsors have provided financial support for over four decades and we know that their contribution is a key part of the longevity and success of Festival in the Park.
Each of the members of the Board of Directors provides the needed skills to execute the event and we thank them for their considerable time and service. If you would be interested in serving on the board please let us know at info@roanokefestival.com.

COME SEE HOW THE WORLD COULD BE.
Welcome to HADESTOWN, where a song can change your fate. Winner of eight 2019 Tony Awards® including Best Musical and the 2020 Grammy® Award for Best Musical Theater Album, this acclaimed new show from celebrated singer-songwriter Anaïs Mitchell and original director Rachel Chavkin (Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812) is a love story for today... and always.
HADESTOWN intertwines two mythic tales — that of young dreamers Orpheus and Eurydice, and that of King Hades and his wife Persephone — as it invites you on a hell-raising journey to the underworld and back. Mitchell’s beguiling melodies and Chavkin’s poetic imagination pit industry against nature, doubt against faith, and fear against love. Performed by a vibrant ensemble of actors, dancers and singers, HADESTOWN is a haunting and hopeful theatrical experience that grabs you and never lets go.
