Festivals of Guthrie
Thursday, Friday & Saturday, October 5, 6, 7, 2023
Oklahoma’s International Bluegrass Festival (we locals just refer to it as "Bluegrass") has been bringing great bluegrass, traditional, western swing, Americana & other music to Guthrie since 1996. Set in Cottonwood Flats where there’s plenty of room for camping and lots of jam sessions, the first full weekend of each October brings superb entertainers from the US and around the world to Guthrie for a weekend of great music. In addition to camping, jamming, and all the great stage performances, festival-goers can enjoy workshops, chow down at the food trucks, shop for a new instrument, event shirt, or hat in the merchandise tent, or bid for a fine instrument at the auction, where all proceeds go to youth scholarships.
