The WILD ROSE OLD TIME FIDDLE FESTIVAL is the culminating event of the year for the Wild Rose Old Tyme Fiddlers Association (WROTFA) which is a volunteer non-profit organization that exists to encourage, foster and develop an appreciation of Old Tyme Fiddle Music in a spirit of friendship, and to preserve this musical heritage for our generation and for future generations to enjoy.
The Wild Rose Fiddle Festival brings together fiddle music players, dancers and fiddle music lovers to play their tunes with other people, listen to competition participants putting their best foot forward, and dancing to Old Time fiddle music!
