Rhoneymeade Fest returns!

– by Cara Aungst

Rhoneymeade Fest returns on June 3-5 with three full days of live performances from local and national artists, DJs, visual art, food and drink. This year, the beautiful outdoor festival will have additional performances in iconic downtown State College locations — 3 Dots, Webster's, Zeno's, and Chumley's.

“The essence of Rhoneymeade Fest and Gorinto Productions events is to create a sustainable, wholesome, creative inclusive experience for both artists, attendees and volunteers,” Corey Elbin said. “The lineup for RMF 2022 has expanded to attract regional and national acts. I truly believe that the scope of creativity and uniqueness within the artists involved is on par with any festival in the country. Ranging from electronic, traditional, interactive, electro-acoustic, improvisational, and visual, there is a unity in the intentional relationship with the pure creative spirit throughout the weekend.”

For the cost of a $20 day pass (you can purchase tickets here), you’ll enjoy show-stopping performances from over 30 performers from across the state and the country. Proceeds will benefit a true hidden gem of public space — Rhoneymeade in Centre Hall, the primary location.

“This year, Rhoneymeade Fest has expanded significantly,” Corey added. “Thirty-plus performers [who come] to Centre County from across the US. will be performing at Rhoneymeade Fest 2022, at five locations spread over three days, including free stages, family-friendly bucolic outdoor settings, late night performances and visual art installations.”

“This type of support is a true gift and we are so excited to provide what we really focus on at Gorinto, which is a memorable uplifting event that can open the imagination to what human expression and community spirit can bring to our lives,” Corey said. “In particular, the help from local sponsorship has been humbling and motivating to say the least. Being able to host these traveling performers in Happy Valley and share the beauty of our region and the welcoming spirit of our community members is really something to look forward to.”
