We reported initial details about the Telluride festival just before Christmas. Now we are able to bring further information about the four-day event. With feet of snow falling on the peaks above Telluride, it’s time to start dreaming about the warm summer days of snowmelt and sun - the music and magic of the 35th Annual Telluride Bluegrass Festival - June 19-22, 2008.

Have a look at the newly released single-day line-up and start planning for the full moon summer solstice in Telluride. Four-day and single-day tickets, camping, and lodging are all available now.

The 35th Annual Telluride Bluegrass coincides with the Summer Solstice and the days surrounding the full moon; the longest day of the year; the beginning of summer. It’s a magical time of sun and light, when the high country of Colorado puts away its skis and grabs hiking boots, kayaks, and a low-back festival chair to take in some bluegrass.
