HIGH COUNTRY â After a topsy-turvy year in 2020 that severely affected businesses, especially the entertainment industry, virtually every usual festival hosted in the High Country was forced to suspend activities in the era of COVID-19.
Following a difficult year of gathering restrictions and heeding health protocols, light is perhaps seen at the end of the tunnel as the proliferation of vaccines and the reopening of counties and states provide hope for festival venues and activities to resume with some level of normalcy.
Traditionally, festivals throughout the High Country are filled with revelers and activities that range from bluegrass and Celtic music to fine arts and symphonies, from hand-created artwork to varieties of performing arts through drama, dance and more. A number of the long-standing festival events look to make their return amid safe guidelines in the summer of 2021.
