A dry Friday night greeted a large and enthusiastic crowd at The Friday Night Jamboree this weekend with The Black Twig Pickers and a film crew from a North Carolina aquarium filming with a 360-degree camera to capture the music and fun.

As Floyd’s tourism offerings expand, the Jamboree remains as a fixture in what brings an international audience to this Blue Ridge Mountain hamlet for old-time and bluegrass music as well as a draw to young and old alike.
