Scores of West Virginia’s master fiddlers, pickers, and singers gather, along with hundreds of local folks and visitors for a weekend of fun, packed with jam sessions throughout the weekend, informal concerts, and renewal of friendships.

The dance will be held in Great Room of the Randolph County Community Arts Center. Live music will be provided by the October Old-Time Week staff. $6 per person.
On Saturday, November 2, 10:00 am to 5:00 pm, the Fiddlers’ Reunion events center around a concert stage. All day you will enjoy the performances of invited old-time master fiddlers and younger old-time musicians from all over the region.
