Rodney Dillard and the Dillard Band 2023
THE DILLARDS FEATURING RODNEY DILLARD–All Keyed Up for Owensboro !

* Nov. 13-14: “The Old Home Place: A Mayberry Weekend” at the Bluegrass Museum and Hall of Fame (Owensboro, Ky.) has been confirmed in celebration of Rodney Dillard’s donation of his musical collection to the museum. The plan is to have a concert at the Woodward Theatre (part of the museum) on Friday the 13th featuring Little Roy Lewis and Lizzy (The David Parmley Band was originally scheduled but had to withdraw). On Saturday the 14th (10 a.m. – 5 p.m.), visitors will be able to tour the museum as several Mayberry tribute artists mingle with patrons among the exhibits. Author Randy Turner will also be on hand. Rodney’s concert will likely start at 7 p.m. with Mayberry tribute artists also participating. The details are still developing, but info and tickets are now available at www.bluegrasshall.org. And continue to check the website as more parts of the weekend are confirmed.

2027

* Apr. 9 & 10: 7th Annual Mayberry-Lucy Festival in Granville, Tenn., known as “Tennessee’s Mayberry Town,” is in the planning stages, but, based on previous years, you can be assured it will be a wonderful event with shows, music, autographs, parade, cruise-in, Mayberry Squad Car Nationals Obstacle Course, and much more. There will be a special time to honor memory of our great friend Dennis Rush (Howie Pruitt) and much more will be announced as the time draws near. For schedule details, updates, and other info, visit www.granvilletn.com.

* June 4-6, 2027: Mayberry Comes to Scottsburg returns to Scottsburg, Ind., after a successful 2026 event. (Note: The dates for the event have moved forward in the month once again to avoid conflicting with a large festival held in an adjacent county that’s been going on for many years.) This will be the fourth “Mayberry Comes to Scottsburg,” and the organizers hope you’ll make this an annual trip on your Mayberry calendar. Visit the website for more details, including tickets to some portions (but most of the festival is free), at MayberryComesToScottsburg.com.

*Sept. 20-26: 38th Annual Mayberry Days® in Mount Airy, N.C. Most details are TBA as guests and the schedule are confirmed throughout 2027, so, for now, just be sure to mark your calendar. That said, tickets to some portions of the festival are already available at www.mayberrydays.org, and other portions that require tickets will be added to the site in the months ahead.
