8News gets sneak peek of Riverrock festival
May 05, 2026
RICHMOND, Va. (WRIC) -- 8News got a visit from a special guest on Tuesday to talk about Dominion Energy Riverrock, an outdoor sports and music festival that will return to Richmond in May.
8News anchor Rolynn Wilson was joined by Nan Callahan, PR Communications Manager at Sports Backers, to talk
about what guests can expect.
"The most exciting change, I think, is that the Allianz Amphitheater will be home to our concerts this year, and they're still free to the public, so it's a really great way to come check out that resource for free," Callahan said.
Riverrock will take place from Friday, May 15 to Sunday, May 17 all along the James River with sporting events, live music, food trucks and much more. For more information and to plan your visit, click here.
