Behind the year-round purposeful programming of The Exchange is Across-the-Way Productions, Inc., producers of the award-winning FloydFest. Since its inception in 2002, the art- and artist-forward FloydFest has earned a reputation as a tastemaker festival, providing a vibrant stage for musicians across a wide spectrum of genres. That legacy finds fresh energy with and within Roanoke’s new state-of-the-art music hall, which kicked off its new chapter with an unforgettable, sold-out concert with Grace Potter and Holy Roller on New Year’s Eve 2025.
But The Exchange is just one spoke of a bold new cultural hub for Downtown Roanoke, sharing the storied space with The Promissory (https://thepromissoryhotel.com/), a 27-room boutique hotel featuring spacious suites and heaps of character and modern style, and the soon-to-come ¡Suerte! (https://suerteroa.com/), a Spanish-style restaurant helmed by celebrated Roanoke restauranteur J.P. Powell located in the building’s vibrant atrium.
