Suwannee Spring Reunion kicks off the first weekend of spring with a festival that will ease you out of your winter hibernation. You’ll get a steel-stringed, musical awakening from five stages – the Amphitheater, the Porch, the Dance Tent, the Music Hall and the Music Farmers Stage – set up on an 800-acre campground along the Suwannee River. The music starts at sunrise, followed by daily yoga at 9 a.m., mandolin and hand drum workshops where many reconnect with friends made in years past, and fireworks set to music to end the night.
In 2024, the festival will continue to delight country and newgrass (that’s new bluegrass) enthusiasts. International Bluegrass Music Hall of Famer Sam Bush will take the stage, along with Americana-fusion group Railroad Earth and Asheville’s Steep Canyon Rangers, who you might know for their multiple collaborations with actor and banjoist Steve Martin.
Don’t forget that the Suwannee Spring Reunion is a camping experience. So if you are looking for a full immersion into a good-vibes-only retreat, you might want to take a look at the camping options and stay on the campground for the duration of the festival. The primitive camping, meaning you’ll set up a tent and make dinner around a campfire, is first come, first served. For the less adventurous, there are also RV stations and cabins for rent, with water and power hook-ups.
