Summary

Wintergrass celebrates 17 years of presenting bluegrass and acoustic music over 4 days in Tacoma WA. The world's first and largest indoor bluegrass festival features 4 stages and 4 days and nights of non-stop music, dance, jams and workshops. The 2010 festival will be held at the fantastic Hotel Murano, featuring glass art from around the world, and various venues in downtown Tacoma February 25-28, 2010. Between 130 and 160 artists play every year, and last yearÂ’s festival drew 4,000 over 4 days.



Selected artists will be compensated for their performances, and travel and lodging will be negotiated on an individual basis with each band. While primarily a bluegrass festival, Wintergrass also presents jamband, Celtic and dance music in addition to related forms of acoustic music. They have also presented choro music from Brazil, Swedish bands playing polskas, gypsy jazz bands, and Afro-Celtic-funk music.



Wintergrass was IBMA Bluegrass Event of the Year in 2005 and continues to be a friendly, trend-setting festival unafraid of taking risks and cultivating the audience that wants to hear your music!
