You just finished a day of skiing and want to sit down near the fireplace with a cup of hot cacao. Wrong. After enjoying the beautiful sights that Lake Tahoe has to offer on its mountains, don’t wind down. Go out. With over 20 bands performing over three days, the seventh annual WinterWonderGrass Festival is a weekend filled with roots and bluegrass meant to make your nights more exciting than a night spent just sitting by the fireplace.
This festival merges skiers’ and snowboarders’ love for music with the mountains. Set up in front of the High Sierras, people wearing brightly colored puffers gather together to see headliners like Marcus King and Greensky BlueGrass and smaller artists like The Lone Bellow, Mapache, and Tray Wellington Band. WinterWonderGrass Festival has a total of 4 stages – one being an outdoor mainstage. Also, for the 21+ folk, there will be complimentary seltzers and beers served from 3-5 pm.
