and the Town of Boiling Springs Host Four Bands for Webbstock ’24

Festival Also Features Kids Zone, Local Artisans, Food and Vendors 

BOILING SPRINGS, N.C.— and the Town of Boiling Springs will host four bands at Webbstock ’24 on Saturday, April 20. Free performances are scheduled in the Brinkley Amphitheater and the Main Street stage. The festival opens at 11 a.m., and the first band performs at 1 p.m.

A variety of musical talent will entertain throughout the afternoon and evening. The bands will play music from several genres, and the evening concert features songs from the legendary Fleetwood Mac.

“This is our third annual Webbstock, and we anticipate it will be the biggest yet,” explained President Dr. William M. Downs. “Four bands, two stages, countless food options, and lots of local vendors … this will be a Saturday to enjoy and to remember!”

Main Street will be closed to traffic during the event, from College Avenue to Branch Street. In addition to live music, activities include a free kids’ zone on the lawn in front of GWU’s Noel Hall, unique items for sell by local artisans and other vendors, and a range of specialty food options. For attendees 21 and older, the Broad River Greenway will host a beverage garden in the parking lot that serves downtown businesses.

Webbstock ’23 featured music on one stage; this year bands will perform on the Main Street Stage and the Brinkley Amphitheater.
