One of Colorado’s most anticipated music moments arrives Feb. 17 as MeadowGrass Festival fans gather to reveal this year’s musical lineup at a celebratory release party.
The festival’s full roster of approximately 20 artists will be unveiled from 5 to 9 p.m. at Goat Patch Brewing, 2727 N. Cascade Ave. The release event also includes giveaways, a performance by Sinnova from 6 to 8 p.m., and a silent auction featuring a signed poster from last year’s event.
During the event, $1 from all beer sales will be donated to Rocky Mountain Highway, the music collaborative that organizes MeadowGrass Festival.
Festival Director Katie Rainwater says that while the festival will continue showcasing up-and-coming artists, this year’s headliners will bring greater name recognition than in years past.
Now in its 17th year, the Memorial Day weekend festival features music spanning multiple genres, along with camping, late-night performances, guided hikes, yoga, sound baths, a Kid Zone with a petting zoo and activities, and local food and art vendors.
“Come out to La Foret and dance in the meadow to some wonderful live music,” Rainwater says.
The festival takes place at La Foret Conference and Retreat Center in Black Forest, just north of Colorado Springs. Attendees can explore several hundred acres of forest, canyons and historic buildings throughout the retreat grounds.
MeadowGrass tickets are available through Rocky Mountain Highway’s website. Discounted early-bird and teen tickets are available, and children 12 and under are admitted free with a paid adult.
