Bluegrass Festival

The Gettysburg Bluegrass Festival at Granite Hill Camping Resort

For more than four decades, Granite Hill Camping Resort has proudly been home to the internationally acclaimed Gettysburg Bluegrass Festival—a beloved tradition since 1979! Founded by Joe and Lil Cornett, whose passion and dedication earned them the Distinguished Achievement Award from the International Bluegrass Music Association in 2012, the festival has become a cornerstone of the bluegrass community and a celebration of authentic American music.

Held twice a year in May and August, the festival brings together world-class performers and music lovers from near and far. Set against the rolling hills of our 150-acre farm, concerts unfold on a stunning timber-frame stage built in 2010—a perfect backdrop for a weekend filled with music, laughter, and connection.

Each festival offers more than incredible performances. Guests can enjoy artist workshops, meet-and-greets, delicious food trucks, local craft vendors, and plenty of classic campground fun like fishing, swimming, mini-golf, and horseshoes. Whether you’re a lifelong bluegrass fan or a first-time listener, it’s an unforgettable experience for all ages.

In 2026, we’ll celebrate the 90th and 91st festivals, taking place May 14–17 and August 13–16, respectively.
