THANK YOU 2020 FESTIVAL HEROES
The annual Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion music festival was cancelled in 2020 due to the Covid-19 Pandemic. The negative impact of that cancellation was significantly mitigated by hundreds of individuals and many businesses who stepped up with special one-time donations.
The names below commemorate those donors who will forever be recognized as 2020 Festival Heroes.
