Albert Music Hall hosts Pinelands Heritage & Americana Fest

(WARETOWN, NJ) -- On September 14, 2024, Albert Music Hall invites you to a day of Pinelands-style family fun at the 2nd Annual Pinelands Heritage & Americana Festival. The event runs from 12:00pm to 5:00pm and is a FREE outdoor event filled with fantastic music, entertainment, and rich cultural festivities. The rain date is September 15th.

Explore over 30 local artisans, vendors, authors, and crafters, and enjoy a diverse lineup of music and entertainment. The day begins at noon with a high-spirited dance performance by the Burlington County 4H Cloggers. Then, you can experience five musical acts showcasing Americana, Folk, and Country genres. First, singer-songwriter Arlan Feiles will perform, followed by Country artists Andy Brasko  and Anthony Campana.  Next, Americana singer-songwriter Emerson Woolf will take the stage, and the afternoon will conclude with a set by the Post-Folk band Burnt Tavern.  Bring a chair if you’d like to sit and relax and enjoy the show!

In addition to the band performances, you’re invited to join the Hall’s pickin’ sessions. Musicians of all skill levels are welcome to participate in the Pickin’ Shed or on the porch and share their love for music. The Pickin' Shed will be open for jamming throughout the event.

For those who get hungry, there will be an outdoor food stand serving cheeseburgers, Thumann's hot dogs, chips, cookies, cakes, and pies, plus a selection of soda and water.  There will also be a merchandise stand selling Albert Music Hall merch (t-shirts, sweatshirts, hats, mugs etc.)  No coolers, pets, or outside food/drink is permitted. The food and merch stand will be cash-only.

The event will be held at Albert Music Hall (in the back parking lot). The address is: 131 Wells Mills Road in Waretown, New Jersey.
