(from Roanoke Outside Foundation) The 14th annual Anthem GO Outside Festival (GO Fest) is set to return to Roanoke, VA, from October 18-20, with an exciting expansion that adds a second location at Explore Park. This expansion aims to enhance the festival experience with the debut of the new “Adventure Outpost” at Explore Park while maintaining its bustling “Festival Basecamp” at Elmwood Park in downtown Roanoke. A complimentary shuttle will connect each location, offering on-going passage for all attendees.
Pete Eshelman, director of the Roanoke Outside Foundation and founder of the Anthem GO Outside Festival, shares his excitement: “This year’s festival promises a true mountain-metro adventure. The ‘Festival Basecamp’ in downtown Roanoke will continue to buzz with energy, surrounded by restaurants, retail, and entertainment. Meanwhile, the ‘Adventure Outpost’ at Explore Park will provide a picturesque setting with its scenic beauty, mountains, trails, and river—perfect for camping, testing outdoor equipment, and enjoying the Ultimate Air Dog Show.”
