A box canyon at 8,750 feet is the reason this festival has held serious music fans for three decades. The 2026 edition puts Jon Batiste on a stage ringed by 13,000-foot peaks, alongside blues elders Taj Mahal and Keb' Mo' playing together.
The lineup also brings the Marcus King Band, Daniel Donato's Cosmic Country, The Record Company, Samantha Fish, G. Love & Special Sauce, and Tab Benoit across the weekend. A Saturday Grand Tasting pours from more than 50 breweries between sets.
