explore our stages
David's Stage
Named after co-founder of the festival, David Tidquist, David’s Stage was built in 1992 and is the the most central location on the festival grounds.
It has hosted iconic performers like Rusted Root, The 10,000 Maniacs, The Avett Brothers, Donna the Buffalo, Lake Street Dive, Sam Bush, Peter Rowan & many more.
Dance Tent
Get your groove on in the Dance Tent! This is where the free-spirits come to dance, jump, and move with joy.
The Heron is famous for its all-night Dance Tent. The music usually goes till dawn!
In the afternoons, when everyone gets hot & sweaty, it’s a short distance to The Beach for a cooling dip!
Dragon Stage
Tucked deep into our enchanted forest at the end of Dragon Run Trail, this stage brings the magic that guarantees unforgettable performances.
The Dragon Stage was built in 2024 by dedicated staff and volunteers using lumber harvested locally including larch timbers and hemlock siding. It was a major accomplishment!
Tiger Maple Stage
The Tiger Maple stage features performances by up and coming artists. This year it will host a Songwriter’s Showcase Friday and Saturday evening, and also Sunday afternoon.
It will also host our Instrument Workshops each morning by Fred Parker & The Tiger Maple String Band.
Daily Schedules
Daily schedules for each stage will be coming soon!
