Boats and....

Boats and Bluegrass is a family friendly festival held on the Mississippi River in Winona, Minnesota.  We pride ourselves in providing a fun, safe, and friendly festival environment.  If you are looking for a laid-back festival with none of the large-fest hassles, this is your place.  With camping just 50 yards from the festival grounds, it does not get any easier.  So come check it out!

Bluegrass

This year we will be bringing back some old faces as well as many new .  Join us for what is sure to be the best year yet. Featuring lots of Minnesota's best artists.  We will also bring you a few groups from ‘a far’ as well.  Is it all bluegrass?  Nope.  We try and provide a good mix of music we think you will enjoy.  Hope to see you this year!!

2011 Highlights

Great weather was just one of the highlights from this years festival.  Tons of great music over the weekend with everything  from Hip Hop (Whiskey Blanket, CO) to another great set from our friend Charlie Parr.  We got a glimpse of some new songs from Pert Near Sandstone and Trampled by Turtles who surprised us all with a few songs.  A big THANKS to everyone that came out.  We have already started planning next years fest to make it even better.  Tickets will go on sale soon.
