It’s almost time! Named the IBMA’s 2025 Event of the Year, Earl Scruggs Music Festival returns Labor Day Weekend to Tryon International in Mill Spring, North Carolina, nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains just outside Asheville. Join us for performances by The Avett Brothers, Greensky Bluegrass, The Del McCoury Band, Béla Fleck: My Bluegrass Heart, and more as we honor the enduring legacy of Earl Scruggs & celebrate Appalachian culture.
ROMP Festival 2026 is an annual bluegrass & roots music celebration set for June 24-27 in Owensboro, Kentucky. Hosted by the Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame & Museum, the festival is renowned for its vibrant community atmosphere, exceptional music lineup, and dedication to preserving the rich legacy of bluegrass music.
And this year’s lineup is impressive! Headliners include I’m With Her, The Punch Brothers, Marty Stuart, Ricky Skaggs, the Del McCoury Band, the Infamous Stringdusters, Rhonda Vincent and more! I personally am super excited to see North Carolina natives Mason Via and Trey Hensley rounding out the lineup.
Ticket prices for ROMP Festival 2026 will increase at 4 p.m. Friday, Jan. 2, 2026! If you’ve been thinking about attending the festival next year, it’s the perfect time to secure your spot at the best price. Visit the website for more information at https://www.rompfest.com/
