About the city: Check
Check in Virginia is a quiet place in Floyd County that offers visitors a practical base for concerts, sports events and cultural outings across the wider Blue Ridge area. Although it is a smaller community, its advantage lies in its relaxed setting, easy access to regional roads and proximity to larger centers such as Roanoke, Blacksburg and Floyd. For visitors who want to combine an event with a short stay in a more natural and less hurried part of Virginia, Check can be an appealing starting point.
Transport connections rely mostly on U.S. Route 221, the road that runs through the area and allows onward travel toward larger halls, stadiums and concert venues nearby. For arrivals by air, the most important gateway is Roanoke-Blacksburg Regional Airport, while travelers arriving by train will mainly use Roanoke Amtrak Station in downtown Roanoke. In the wider transport area, systems such as Valley Metro in Roanoke and the Smart Way Bus on the Roanoke - New River Valley route are also useful, while the final leg to Check is most practical by car, taxi or arranged transfer.
The tourist bonus of this area is its proximity to mountain landscapes and recognizable stops along the Blue Ridge Parkway. Before or after a concert, it is worth planning a visit to Floyd, a walk through local shops and galleries, a stop around Mabry Mill or a short pause at overlooks and recreation areas such as Rocky Knob. Check therefore offers a quieter contrast to major events: close enough to regional arenas and stadiums, while also surrounded by scenery that adds extra value to the stay.
