IBMA Bluegrass Live!®

IBMA Bluegrass Live!® will take on a new shape in 2026. Still in the heart of Chattanooga, the festival will offer a more intimate, curated experience while maintaining the high-energy bluegrass fans love and expect.
With primary venues such as Chattanooga Convention Center, The Signal, and Barrelhouse Ballroom, this year’s format will bring audiences even closer to the music, providing a more comfortable and consistent experience, rain or shine.
A more focused footprint also means a limited number of tickets, including a small number of VIP tickets, compared to previous years, so early planning will be essential for fans who want to be part of this boutique setting. We promise a stronger connection and immersive experience between artists and fans.
And what’s more? This is just the beginning. Beyond our primary venues, additional spaces throughout the city, including outdoor gathering areas like Miller Park and Miller Plaza, will shape the full festival experience. There’s so much more in the works, and we can’t wait to share what’s ahead.
We hope you’ll join us in Chattanooga for 2026 IBMA Bluegrass Live!®. Tickets on sale soon. Learn more at https://worldofbluegrass.org.
