Wintergrass 2026

Wintergrass is a four-day, full-immersion, musical joyfest held indoors at the Hyatt Regency in Bellevue WA.  Jam in your jammies.  Dance with happy people. Listen to the best music with the best sound anywhere -  no earplugs needed!  Watch the future headliners learn their first chord at youth education programs. Heck, strap on a mandolin and learn a chord yourself no matter what age you are! See, touch and hear the most remarkable collection of fine instruments you'll ever find in one place along with gorgeous, interesting and useful things in the exhibit halls. The only stressful thing at this festival is choosing what to do! Dive in for the full four days or choose the day or days you can attend.  It's like a massage for your heart and soul.  Go home happy.  

This year we're exploring many ways traditional music can be expressed from Bluegrass to Oldtime, Choro to Polska, Folk to Celtic and much more.  Wintergrass welcomes everyone.  Love lives here. 

Listen. Learn.  Belong.
