The 29th Rocky Mountain Folks Festival Program is now available online! Read up on each artist, get a sneak peek at what libations you’ll get to sip all-weekend-long & much more.

To enhance the Festivarian experience in Lyons, we’ve installed a brand new bridge at the Planet Bluegrass Farm! Now, when you park at the Farm, you will be able to easily access the Festival grounds without having to cross the Highway. The bridge is pedestrian and bicycle friendly, so please enjoy, and let us know what you think! We’d love to hear from you.

“Folk music is a feeling more than a sound. Listening to folk music, whether it’s about love or death or sex or politics, feels like coming home after a long day at work. It feels like the first cool rain of spring or the first bitter wind of winter — it’s familiar. It’s part of us, of the seasons of our lives. The Folks Festival is about tapping into that familiar feeling.”
