The Rhythm & Roots Festival returns in 2026, transforming Ninigret Park in Charlestown, Rhode Island, into a vibrant tapestry of sound and spirit from September 4th to 6th. For over two decades, this beloved festival has been a cornerstone for Americana, folk, blues, and global roots music enthusiasts. Imagine three days steeped in soulful harmonies, fiery fiddle tunes, and the deep rhythms that connect us all. Beyond the extraordinary lineup, discover a welcoming atmosphere where families gather, friends reunite, and new connections are forged under the late summer sky. Explore a curated marketplace featuring artisanal crafts, indulge in a diverse array of local and international food vendors, and experience the joyous energy that pulses through every corner of the park. From intimate acoustic sets to foot-stomping main stage performances, Rhythm & Roots offers an immersive cultural journey. This isn't just a festival; it's a cherished annual tradition, a communal celebration of authentic music and shared experiences that lingers long after the last note fades. Join us for a weekend where the roots run deep and the rhythm never stops.
