"There's nothing better than knowing that there are thousands of people who love the Newport Folk Festival as much as we do and they want to see it live for years to come," said Jay Sweet, festival producer. "Our Folk Family proved it last year and they are proving it again as we listen to and read the many wonderful comments from people who have already planned to attend the festival even before this announcement. We are extremely humbled to have the support of the fans and the artists who help to make Newport the best place in the world for our annual Newport Folk Festival Family Reunion."

"I, too, was overwhelmed by the tremendous showing of love from the festival's fans. Not only did they turn out in full force to hear the music, selling out both days, they also contributed to the legacy of the festival by supporting a benefit for the Newport Festivals Foundation," added George Wein, CEO of Newport Festivals Foundation (www.newportfestivalsfoundation.org).
