We hope you've enjoyed our 2020 Petroglyph Festival Virtual Event. The videos will remain up to watch at your convenience. Hopefully, we will all be back together in Ridgecrest for the 2021 Petroglyph Festival, but until then we'll leave you with Terry Goedel, Tara Kingi, Michael Goedel, and Erin Campbell performing a Native American Hoop Dance. Enjoy!

While we might not have the festival main stage, for this year's Festival After Dark, we are excited to share a performance from DDAT. Named by NPR Music as one of the top 10 bands in the US - DDAT combines hip hop, jazz, funk and soul to their original southwestern feel and genre. Performances by DDAT are known to be full of energy and excitement. We are grateful that DDAT has performed at the festival for many years, and hope to have them back again in 2021.
