Iron Blossom Music Festival returns to the Training Center on Leigh — now known as Midtown Green — this Saturday-Sunday, Sept. 21-22. This year’s installment features headlining acts Mt. Joy, Turnpike Troubadours, Caamp, and Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night Sweats.

Gates open for both days at 1 p.m. Paid parking is available at several local lots, including lots at Movieland, the Science Museum of Virginia, and the DMV. Public transit is also a hassle-free option: GRTC Routes 50, 76, and 77 drop off on nearby DMV Drive, or take the Pulse and get off in front of the Science Museum.

Pro tip: Even if you’re not going to make it to this year’s festival, be aware that the above lots will be unavailable to non-Iron Blossom attendees.

Are you just hearing about this? There’s still time to snag a ticket.
