Visit Floyd

Floyd is a small mountain town with a big personality. Sitting atop the Blue Ridge Plateau in southwestern Virginia, it’s a place where open skies, winding roads, and wide views set the pace. Life here moves a little slower, giving visitors the chance to breathe, explore, and connect.

Known for its music and arts, Floyd has long been a gathering spot for people who enjoy creativity and community. The town is a stop along The Crooked Road: Virginia’s Heritage Music Trail, and the famous Friday Night Jamboree at the Floyd Country Store has been bringing people together through traditional music and dance for decades. Beyond the stage, you’ll find art studios, galleries, and events that highlight the work of local makers.

Food and drink also play a big role in the Floyd experience. From locally grown produce to craft beer and wine, visitors can sample flavors that reflect the land and the people who live here. Farmers markets, farm stores, and family-run businesses make it easy to eat and drink well.
