Logo for 25th Annual Tumbleweed Festival by Tom Reitter.
When planning for 2021’s 25th annual Tumbleweed Music Festival began, the COVID-19 pandemic was in full force. Because we could not know how events would unfold over the course of the year, it was planned to again be a virtual, online festival, as with the 24th annual rendition in 2020 (see TMFVirtual2020 for more about that).
The 2021 virtual festival opened on Friday, September 3rd at tumbleweedmusicfestival.org, and features nearly 100 prerecorded performances from five countries, 14 live workshops, a live Zoom Shanty Sing, and a live Zoom Contra Dance. And, don't forget our Shop, where you can buy this year's fantastic tie-dyed T-shirts, buttons, and more!
The Tumbleweed Music Festival is sponsored by Three Rivers Folklife Society, and co-sponsored by the City of Richland. Additional co-sponsors include Southam Creative, One World Telecommunications, Northwest Public Broadcasting, Print Plus, Artmil Design, and Gearhead Grip and Electric Production Rentals.
