The Route 23 Hop

Several years ago, Rick Greene knew that the arrival of several thousand bluegrass fans to Pike County, Ohio, created opportunity - for music fans and the local community.

​

What resulted was the then-named SamJam Hop. Now called the Route 23 Hop, it offers bluegrass music at four local venues and gives our guests a taste of southern Ohio while benefitting local restaurants, service organizations, and taverns that support the festival.

​

We invite everyone to check out the Route 23 Hop, which is free at all locations, and is a great way to kick off the Route 23 Bluegrass Festival! 

 

Be sure to get your tickets for the shuttle provided by Luxury Entertainment! It's a great way to experience the Hop and tickets are $25 for individuals and $45 for couples so get them while they are available. Purchase tickets for Luxury Entertainment by calling Erin Lansing at (740) 804-1818 or Rick Greene at (740) 547-9059.
