Hometown Rising is the first event of the “Louisville Trifesta” series, as two more consecutive weekends of festivals follow it. As part of the series, Danny Wimmer Presents, producer of Hometown Rising, announced a partnership with the Kentucky Department of Agriculture to celebrate the state’s farmers.
“It all begins with the farmer,” shared Danny Wimmer, founder of DWP. “Our festivals feature the end products, bourbon and food, and I am excited to use our events as a platform to celebrate and recognize the farming community.”
The 2020 Hometown Rising Country Music & Bourbon Festival will take place in Louisville, Kentucky, on Sept. 12 and 13, and event passes go on sale Friday, Feb. 21 at 10 a.m. For details on tickets, camping and lodging and more, visit hometownrisng.com.
