Green Mountain Bluegrass and Roots Festival

Nestled in the heart of Hunter Park, the Green Mountain Bluegrass and Roots Festival returns in August 2026 for four unforgettable days of acoustic beauty, soulful storytelling, and community spirit. From the moment the first banjo rings out across the grounds, festivalgoers are transported into a world where tradition meets passion, and every note feels like it was written just for the mountains. Whether you're a lifelong devotee of roots music or discovering its magic for the first time, this festival delivers an experience that resonates long after the final encore. Running Thursday, August 13 through Saturday, August 15, the festival offers flexible attendance options — grab a single-day pass to catch the highlights or commit to the full 4-Day Pass for the complete immersion. Thursday and Friday bring electrifying opening sets and intimate stage moments, while Saturday builds to a crescendo of the festival's most celebrated performances. The open-air setting of Hunter Park creates a naturally stunning backdrop, where towering green canopies and warm summer evenings set the perfect scene for foot-stomping, hand-clapping, joy-filled music. Beyond the performances, the Green Mountain Bluegrass and Roots Festival is a gathering of kindred spirits — a place where families spread out blankets, friends discover new favorite artists, and the spirit of American roots music thrives in its most authentic form. Artisan vendors, local food, and impromptu jam sessions around the grounds make every corner of the park worth exploring. Come for the music, stay for the magic.
