The Winding Creek Music Festival is a chance to immerse yourself in the world of Bluegrass, country, slow jams, folk music and even gospel. Whether you’re in the mood to sit back and listen or you’re interested in learning how to play, the festival offers something for all ages!
Held on August 14-17, 2025, the festival draws bands from across the U.S. Come to camp, listen, perform and learn how to play a variety of instruments used in Bluegrass music. This year’s festival headliners include Larry Efaw & the Mountaineers (Thursday, August 14), Joe Mullins & The Radio Ramblers (Friday, August 15), and The Grascals (Saturday, August 16).
Throughout the festival, visitors can take advantage of workshops to learn the basics of fiddle, mandolin and banjo. There is also a workshop for children, and those who participate will have the opportunity to perform Saturday night.
The event will have a number of food vendors and a beer and wine garden near the stage. There’s also plenty of shade on-site. Don’t forget to bring a lawn chair!
The Winding Creek Music Festival will run Thursday through Sunday (rain or shine), with ticket prices varying each day. Children 12 & under free. Find more information on this year’s festival, including a full lineup of bands, performers, workshops, ticket pricing and more here.
