Richmond to Experience First Music Festival

Richmond’s Wessendorff Park

Richmond’s Wessendorff Park

Richmond’s Wessendorff Park has seen activity recently as the Historical Richmond Association hosted Movie in the Park and Music in the Park nights. But the city will soon experience Concert on the Creek, its first music festival of live music and great food! Morton Street Music Owner Rob Quarles has desired to produce a music festival in Historic Downtown Richmond for several years. Morton Street Music, LLC was created exclusively to promote and produce live seasonal outdoor concerts and an annual all-day music festival in Richmond.

The first of these events will be on Friday, October 30th from 6 to 11 pm at Wessendorff Park, located on Preston Street, just north of City Hall and the railroad tracks between Fourth and Sixth Streets. The event is free to the public and will offer a variety of musical genres. Concert on the Creek will feature six bands and artists and four food trucks. Visit www.mortonstreetmusic.com for a list of bands and food trucks that will be present.

The new Braman Winery & Brewery, due to open in new digs before the year’s end, will be on site to help “wind down” attendees with beverages to purchase, and a variety of vendors will round out the festival atmosphere. You won’t want to miss this first ever music festival on the edge of Richmond’s Historic District!
