Breckenridge Bluegrass & Beer
Bluegrass and Beer in Breckenridge...
...what's not to LOVE?
Beer is the most loved beverage in the universe and the route to all things magnificent. Add in some live Bluegrass, delicious food, gorgeous Breckenridge mountain views and great friends... you have an irresistible recipe for making magic! These indulgences all come together for the Breckenridge Bluegrass & Beer hosted by Rocky Mountain Events.
Beer lovers come together to taste their way through a wide array of samples from local and national Craft Breweries while boogying to some great bluegrass music from Grass It Up all under the majestic mountains of Breckenridge! Guests will receive a commemorative tasting glass, access to the live music, entertainment and festival activities, and a chance to taste and explore their way through an assortment of beer while learning from the Brewery Ambassadors. Festival food from local vendors will be available for purchase "a la carte" throughout the plaza. We know you will be hooked and will keep coming back for more!

Grass It Up – Main Street Station Stage

Steeped in American music traditions such as bluegrass, folk, ragtime, rock and country, Grass It Up has shaped a unique brand of Americana that expresses the feeling of life in today's American West. Their stories translate to timeless songs that touch the heart of their listeners, and their melodic instrumentation bends rules. Grass It Up has been producing their own original music since 2005 and is celebrating their 6th full-length album, Borrowed Time, recorded live at the Western Jubilee Recording Company. Grass It Up brings a headline performance and has warmed up the stage for classic performers like the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band and the Oak Ridge Boys, and bluegrass bands including Crooked Still, Front Country, the Ragin’ Cajun Doug Kershaw and the Yonder Mountain String Band.
