About Us
The first weekend in June is set aside in this southwestern Virginia town to celebrate mountain heritage and a designated Scenic River. Clinch River Days, started in 1999 by a volunteer group in St. Paul Virginia for their community and to attract tourists to the area. Hoping to broaden the appeal of Clinch River Days, the volunteer group worked with marketing consultant Susan Copeland of Abingdon to create a brand identity for the festival and a logo that features the designated Scenic River, the area's ties to railroad history, mountain scenery and the fresh water mussels found in the Clinch River.
Little did they know, the Clinch River Festival would take on a life of its own and become a well known regional happening!
Each year, Clinch River Days offers traditional events, including juried art and photography shows, wine and cheese tasting sponsored by local vineyards, amusements, craft and food vendors, and musical performances ranging from rock, bluegrass and classical to gospel... and much, much more. Festival-goers can look forward to new events, performances and other offerings added each year. There's something for everyone, young and old, at the Clinch River Days Festival. And the best part... all events and performances are FREE.
