After a tremendous first year, plans are well under way for next year's Festival. 2009 will move to a hard site, and will remain there. The site is a beautiful working Winery just North of Joplin, Missouri. Construction is under way for stages, buildings, pubs and a whole lot more! Our first year we had planned to be at the Winery, however, we felt we did not have enough permanent structures to handle the amount of people expected, so it was moved to a City Park. The first year ended with 54 vendors, 27 professional acts, 90+ street characters and excellent attendance. 2009 will be extending to two weekends April 18-19 and April 25-26. Make plans now to attend, don't miss out on what will be one of the fastest growing events in Southwest Missouri!

Huzzah!  That's great news!  I had lots of fun at JRF this year.  It was definitely worth my 4 hour round trip.  I was amazed at how well it was organized for a first year fest.  The atmosphere was great, there were ample booths & the acts were good.  Do you think that on the hard site, room will be set up for working trebuchets?
