The Railway City Music and Arts Festival gets underway Friday, running through the weekend at the Pinafore Park in St. Thomas.

The festival began with a small footprint in 2022 but has grown to attract thousands of people.

“There’s still enough variation that, you know, I think everyone’s going to come to see one particular genre, but the next band may be something that they haven’t experienced before, and they may just discover something new that, they really, really enjoy,” said spokesperson Rick Nemett.

Organizers say there will be more than 80 food and arts vendors to go along with a range of musical genres over four days.
