Turning Tides Music Festival

This multicultural, participatory event will feature live music from the 2026 recipient of International Folk Music’s Artist of the Year, Carsie Blanton, and her band, along with the 2025 recipient of International Folk Music’s Artist of the Year, Crys Matthews.

The community-building festival will also include performances by Seffarine, Alice DiMicele & Andy Casad, Llorona, The Burning Hell, Larry Pattis and Bhakti Heart.

The pricing is reasonable for a single-day festival that presents more than eight acts, and there are many opportunities to volunteer and get a free wristband to the festival.
