RockyGrass Festival tickets — Lyons, Colorado

Three Days of Bluegrass at Lyons’ Planet Bluegrass Ranch

Festival Information

Secure RockyGrass Festival tickets to experience a beloved, 3-day bluegrass tradition in the heart of Colorado. Held annually at the scenic Planet Bluegrass Ranch in Lyons, RockyGrass blends intimate vibes with world-class picking along the St. Vrain River. Founded in 1973, it’s a cornerstone of the bluegrass community and a pilgrimage for fans and musicians alike.

Bluegrass legend Bill Monroe and Planet Bluegrass launched the festival with a simple goal: create a premier bluegrass gathering in Colorado. The event found a permanent home when Planet Bluegrass purchased the Lyons ranch in 1992, and it celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2022. They’ve since presented 54 editions as of 2026, deepening a legacy built on musical excellence and community.

Each summer, RockyGrass welcomes approximately 4,000–5,000 attendees across two stages, hosting roughly 30–40 artists per edition. The programming is dedicated to bluegrass in all its forms—traditional and progressive—enhanced by prestigious instrument contests and hands-on workshops. Fans come for the stellar picking and stay for the intimate scale that makes discovering new favorites easy.

The lineup history underscores its prestige. Past headliners include Alison Krauss, Sam Bush, Béla Fleck, Del McCoury Band, Punch Brothers, Ricky Skaggs, Jerry Douglas, and Sierra Hull. Surprise collaborations and all-star jams are part of the magic, with many artists returning year after year to share the stage.

Beyond the music, RockyGrass offers renowned instrument contests (banjo, guitar, mandolin, fiddle, dobro, bass), engaging music workshops, kids’ activities, artisan vendors, and easy river access to cool off between sets. Food vendors and local Colorado craft beer round out a welcoming, community-driven atmosphere that feels both timeless and fresh.
