Weekly jamboree is held every Friday night at the Floyd Country Store‚ and bluegrass concerts are staged periodically on Saturday nights. These events are worthy tributes to old-time and bluegrass music and to mountain dance. Many of those who attend the Friday Night Jamboree are regulars‚ but the Jamboree also gets visitors every week from across the country. The Friday evening jam sessions begin with an hour of gospel music performed by a group of local old-timers‚ and then various bands take turns playing onstage. Often musicians jam in the parking lot‚ and the audience sometimes flows over into the street on summer nights. General admission is $8.00, children 7-12 are $5.00, and children under 6 are free.
