Richmond loves outdoor music and festivals and many take place here. From the Folk Festival to Friday Cheers this is a hot spot to see Richmond from the river while enjoying some live music .

RE: Richmond Folk Festival . If you like more space and less crowds. Go on Sunday and stay off of Brown's Island. Also, the music from the Dance Pavilion bleeds over onto the MVW stage.
