36th Year!!  "Gettin back to our Roots!"

The Roots Festival is a 2-day family friendly event held in the beautiful downtown Paola, KS Park Square. We are pleased to have provided a fun and entertaining event for our community over the years! Last year’s festival highlights include a wide variety of amazing live music featuring National, Regional and Local Artist’s. This year's music will focus on the amazing local area musicians just as we did 36 years ago!
