PITTSYLVANIA Co., Va. â With multiple events and festivals planned at the Blue Ridge Amphitheater, formally known as the White Oak Amphitheater, in Blairs, county staff is looking at updating their music festival ordinance for the first time in 30 years.
According to their website, the county is looking to make a âthorough revision to make sure regulations are up-to-dateâ and protect those involved, including surrounding residents, event attendees, county government and event promoters.
During their April 20 meeting, the Pittsylvania County Board of Supervisors voted to freeze the acceptance of music festival applications until the code can be revised.
The proposed revisions to the code focus on the following areas: sound and light, fire and EMS, traffic, insurance and bonding and security and crowd control.
