The 2026 Colorado Bluegrass Festival

The Colorado Bluegrass Festival is unlike any other night of music in Colorado. It is a single-night showcase of the best in Colorado's acoustic music scene. We bring nine bands to McAwesome Ranch in Castle Rock, and each band showcases three of their favorite songs in the traditional single-mic performance style. The ranch provides an intimate, community focused venue where attendees get to listen close, meet the artists, and listen to bands try out new ideas in front of friends and fellow musicians. We provide merch, food, drinks, camping on the hill, and a festival season celebration through the night. This festival is by musicians and for musicians, and we are inviting you to witness the magic with us.

Stay tuned For The 2026 band announcements in the spring
