2010 Bellevue Wintergrass Music Festival

February 25 - 28, 2010 | Hyatt Regency Bellevue

A Northwest treasure for 16 years, the 2010 Wintergrass Music Festival will make its inaugural appearance in Bellevue February 25-28 at the Hyatt Regency Bellevue, the festival's new home through 2018. Wintergrass is one of the biggest and best bluegrass festivals in the country, attracting not just fans but also musicians and artists -- from regional and national favorites to international acts. An estimated 30 plus bands and over 200 musicians will perform throughout the 4-day festival. While Wintergrass is primarily a bluegrass music festival, you'll hear plenty of other styles of acoustic music including Gypsy jazz, Celtic music, Old-Timey, Swedish polskas and many more types of acoustic string music.
