FESTIVAL OF ADVENTURES
& MUD RIVER MUSIC FEST

There is nothing as stirring to the senses as the turning leaves of fall, the smell of campfire smoke mingling with the crisp fall air and the smell of tasty foods all coming together in harmony with the sound of tent canvas gently flapping in the breeze and the lively melodies of ethnic folk music drifting through the the grounds on a beautiful fall day.

These are the unique sensations one experiences at FESTIVAL OF ADVENTURES and the MUD RIVER MUSIC FEST each September in Aitkin, MN. This year's event dates are September 15-16, 2007.

FESTIVAL OF ADVENTURES celebrates the rich and colorful heritage of the Aitkin area, bringing to life the days of the fur trade, pinery camps, early pioneers and riverboats through living-history interpreters, and period-authentic demonstrations of early crafts and skills.

The MUD RIVER MUSIC FEST brings a variety of folk music performances featuring top performers who represent the diverse ethnic folk traditions of the first people to settle in the region.
