Bluegrass festival runs Thursday-Sunday in Wind Gap

The Appalachian Fiddle & Bluegrass Association invites music lovers from across the Northeast to the 37th Annual AFBA Bluegrass Festival, taking place Thursday through Sunday, at scenic Mountain View Park in Wind Gap. The four-day festival celebrates the best in traditional and contemporary bluegrass with nationally recognized performers, regional favorites, camping, workshops, family activities, and around-the-clock jam sessions.

This year’s lineup features acclaimed artists including The Grascals, Henhouse Prowlers, Danny Paisley & The Southern Grass, Junior Sisk Band, DownRiver Collective, Martha Spencer, The Plate Scrapers, The Youngers, and more than 20 bands performing throughout the weekend. Festival goers can also enjoy the AFBA Youth Academy, instrument workshops, children’s activities, food vendors, and the welcoming community atmosphere that has made the festival a summertime tradition for nearly four decades.

More than just a concert, the AFBA Bluegrass Festival offers an immersive experience for musicians, families, and first-time attendees alike. Guests are encouraged to bring their instruments and join informal jam sessions that continue throughout the campground, creating opportunities to learn, connect, and celebrate the rich tradition of bluegrass music. Camping is included with a full-weekend ticket, making it easy to enjoy the entire festival experience.

Weekend and single day tickets are available.

The festival is held at Mountain View Park, 206 E. Mountain Road, Wind Gap, and is presented by the Appalachian Fiddle & Bluegrass Association, a nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving and promoting bluegrass, old-time, and traditional acoustic music through festivals, educational programs, and community events.
