Melrose Caverns is hosting the fifth annual Cave Comedy Fest this coming weekend – Saturday, July 25.
Melrose Caverns is located off Route 11 south of Harrisonburg.
Neat history there: the caverns were first discovered in 1818, and Union soldiers left their mark during the Civil War, literally – many left their signatures that have been preserved on the cave walls.
You can expect a joke or two about how you’d better not leave your own signature for future generations to gawk at, since it’s now private property.
The lineup for this year’s Cave Comedy Fest features national touring comedian Mark Riccadonna and local fan favorites The Funny Womacks, with performances throughout the evening.
Guests can also enjoy live music from Kelly May and Crystal Armentrout, food from Early Katering Company, local craft beer from Cave Hill Farms Brewery, and ice cream favorites from Branch’s Ice Cream.
