Attendees can expect a cultural celebration with art, food, vendors, and activities for all ages.
From 3 pm - 9 pm, Saturday delivers a 1970s vibe featuring performances by Grammy Award-winning funk R&B artist Rose Royce and Fayetteville's own The Fatback Band.
While the music plays, festival organizers encourage everyone to "pull up their socks and lace up their roller skates" for an Old School Skate Jam near the main stage. Skates are provided. A small fee will be required to participate.
In addition to the Festival Park activities, the area's Can-Do Coldwell Banker Trolley transforms into the "Can You Dig It" Trolley for a curated educational tour of Black Fayetteville in the 1970s.
