High winds on Monday ripped half the roof off the barge that serves as the Coca-Cola Stage during the Riverbend Festival, according to John Troutner, director of public relations with Friends of the Festival.
The barge is anchored in the off-season at Haletown, Tenn., and Mr. Troutner said preliminary estimates are that repairs will cost between $60,000 to $80,000.
It will be repaired in time for the festival, which runs June 11-19, he said.
