Planet Bluegrass has announced the lineup for RockyGrass 2026, taking place July 25-27 at the Planet Bluegrass Ranch in Lyons, Colorado. The festival brings together modern genre-crossing acts like I’m With Her, Punch Brothers, and Rhiannon Giddens & The Old-Time Revue alongside established icons Sam Bush, The Del McCoury Band, and Tim O’Brien. For over five decades, RockyGrass has given the world’s finest bluegrass musicians complete freedom to stretch genre boundaries or honor tradition, creating an intimate atmosphere where artists and audiences connect over musical exploration at the base of Colorado’s Rocky Mountains.
The weekend roster also features Steep Canyon Rangers, Kruger Brothers, Della Mae, Tony Trischka’s Earl Jam with Michael Daves, Willie Watson, and more. Sarah Jarosz, who first attended in 2002 at age 11, reflected on the festival’s unique character: “Where else can you wade in the river while listening to the best live music you’ve ever heard? The proximity of the campground to the festival makes it uniquely homey, and there is always an easy flow between artists and festival goers.” Tim O’Brien called it “as near to perfect as any festival I’ve attended,” recalling jamming at 2 AM and a memorable Doc Watson set. A limited number of tickets and camping passes remain available at bluegrass.com/rockygrass.
