We’ve got NightGrass. We’ve got FirstGrass. So what’s Bluegrass Eve all about?

Bluegrass Eve is a continuation of our pre-festival musical kickoff celebration! It’s a Wednesday night show before the Festival begins on Thursday. Held in Mountain Village at the Telluride Conference Center, just a short walk from Sunset Plaza (where we hold FirstGrass), it’s the perfect way to start your Bluegrass weekend.

Ride the free gondola from Telluride and step into the spirit of the festival early!

Stay tuned for the 2026 Bluegrass Eve lineup.
