Support Local Artists

For almost 50 years the Red River Revel has presented a hallmark annual event for the region, celebrating visual art, music, food, dance, theatre and more. The 49th Annual Red River Revel will run Thursday through Sunday for two consecutive weekends and is slated for Sept. 25-Sept. 28 and Oct. 3-Oct 6, 2025. 

The Revel's mission is support art and art education, and a big part of its history is lifting up the musicians and bands of the region. One challenge we face is the skyrocketing cost of nationally-touring artists and musicians post-pandemic. For example, artists who played at the Revel just 5 years ago now cost three to four times as much! While popular music is needed to draw the audience to the festival, this change has put a strain on our organization's ability to equitably hire local and regional musicians. 

But this is where you can help push the mission forward! 100% of your Give For Good Donation goes directly to the organization that supports Local and Regional Performers and Artists. Make your donation today and help us to expand opportunities for our wonderously talented artists in the region!
