to Stay

Allegany County is home to award-winning and
nationally recognized music and street festivals
and a full calendar of theater, arts, and cultural
events. Jam at DelFest, one the nation’s premier
bluegrass music festivals celebrating 15 years in
2023, or the Tri-State Wing-Off, with unique
chicken wing flavors and nationally touring
musical acts. Attend the Appalachian Festival,
celebrating the best of Mountain Maryland’s
traditional arts, culture, music, history, and
natural environment, or Cumberland’s Whiskey
Rebellion and Heritage Days Festivals,
celebrating the rich history of Cumberland and
George Washington’s time here. Enjoy a live
performance at one of Cumberland’s local
theaters, or engage with diverse and
multicultural performing artists through
Frostburg State University’s Cultural Events
Series program. No matter the season,
there are a mountain of reasons to celebrate
in Mountain Maryland.
