Weiser Fiddle Festival






The Weiser Fiddle Festival officially begins the third week of June, but for a lot of musicians the festivities begin a week earlier in an adjacent plot of dry, scrubby land known as Stickerville. It is here where musicians return each year to set up camp beneath the thorny black locust trees and play music until the wee hours of the morning. By the time the official festival reaches its peak, Stickerville is largely empty, and will remain so until next year.
