It is totally up to the discretion of performers and artists if they will be available for public meetings and signings. The performers are under no obligation to participate in these types of activities. Historically most Riverfest artists do meet with the public in the merchandising designated areas after their time on stage. Because we have no idea if artists will or will not participate, there will be no advance announcement. If you are interested in meeting with a specific artist, go to the main merchandise stands after they have completed their time on stage and check with the merchandise volunteers.
