The 53rd annual Telluride Bluegrass Festival is a great way to kick off the Colorado summer season. It’s a laid-back music gathering held around the summer solstice each year. Boasting a myriad of performers across a range of genres, those attending will have a memorable 4-day experience camping under the stars.
This year’s music-filled event will take place from Thursday to Sunday, June 18th to 21st, 2026, in the historic mountain town of Telluride. There will be workshops and songwriting competitions for “festivarians” to enjoy while attending. Campsites and lodging accommodations are distributed throughout the town and should be booked in advance.
