The City of Lancaster Pennsylvania-USA, home of Lancaster Roots and Blues, is centrally located in the mid-Atlantic region.
Trains:
The Lancaster Train Station is within walking distance (Or a short cab ride to the Hotel of your choice.) of the festival. We are serviced by Amtrak with easy access from Philadelphia, NYC, Boston, Baltimore, Washington DC, Harrisburg, Pittsburgh and points west.
Planes:
Major airports include BWI in Baltimore and PHL in Philadelphia. Both airports are about 90 to 11o minute drive to Lancaster depending on traffic conditions. MDT is Harrisburg International Airport and is closer (30 minutes) but there are not as many options there. Lancaster Airport (6.8 miles to the festival), offers puddle jumpers to PIT in Pittsburgh and BWI and is very close to the festival. It is also good if you are coming in private aircraft.
