The Hello Summer Festival returns to Roanoke County’s Green Hill Park on Friday, June 20 from 6 -10 p.m. Kick off the sunniest season of all with live music, food and drinks, fun family activities, and the region’s first drone show. Admission is free and festival features the following offerings:
Family Activities – The activities are from 6-9:30 p.m. They include laser tag, Kid Zone with inflatables, face painting and corn hole.
Live Music– The Jared Stout Band, an alt-county powerhouse from southwest Virginia, seamlessly weaves Appalachian rhythms with bluesy undertones in their sound. It’s from 7-9:30 p.m.
Airloom Done Show– The region’s first Airloom drone show takes off at 9:30 p.m. It will be a full evening of fun, but if attendees can come just for the drone show, plan to arrive early to secure a parking spot to soak in the excitement before the show begins.
Food and beverages – Beverages will be available for purchase including a cashless bar. Outside food and beverages are allowed, but subject to checks. No outside alcohol is permitted. Local food vendors include:
- Copper Dog and Co (Hot pressed sandwiches)
- Palumbos (Cheesesteaks, burgers, wings, chicken tenders and sides)
