The Strawberry Music Festival has announced that the 2026 Fall Festival will be held on the same weekend as this year’s event — the third weekend of October. The event may be 3 or 4 days long, with a further announcement coming soon.
The 4-day 2026 Spring Festival will be held on Memorial Day Weekend. Both events will take place at the Nevada County Fairgrounds in Grass Valley.
On a sad note, the Frankly Bluegrass Festival has been cancelled. The two-year-old event was held in the fall at the Amador County Fairgrounds in Plymouth. This was an excellent festival that deserved to make it. It continued a long tradition of bluegrass events at this venue. We will miss it.
