The 36th Annual Tucson Folk Festival is Coming!...

...and it's being presented in a brand new way across three stages, via online broadcast and in-person, with over 75 live performances!

In anticipation of the fest's latest iteration, we're taking a look at 5 ways in which the Tucson Folk Festival is familiar to past years, and 5 ways in which it's new!

FAMILIAR: It's FREE!

The Tucson Folk Festival prides itself on being a FREE festival that celebrates Americana & Folk Music traditions and all of its wonderful variations. This year is no different!

NEW: A Broadcast Festival!

Our 36th Annual festival takes place on April 10th & 11th, 2021 in an exciting new way! Saturday and Sunday, the festival features three new stages and venues with a range of ways to enjoy and watch the festival, including three free livestream broadcasts!

FAMILIAR: Live & In-Person Music!

We have always offered opportunities to enjoy music live & in-person. The Drive-In Stage at Park Place Mall and the MSA Annex Stage will offer in-person attendance, and that much is the same! Although, it'll be done in all-new ways...

FAMILIAR: Our Wonderful Community!

Although our festival's being presented in an exciting and all-new way this year, one constant we can always lean on is how phenomenal our music-loving community in Tucson is! We love you just the way you are, and thank you endlessly for all of the support that you have offered TKMA and the Tucson Folk Festival throughout the decades.

We'll see you soon—whether in-person or online—as we are just ONE WEEK from festivities on April 10th & 11th! Help us spread the word!

NEW: Stay Safe with Face Masks & Social Distancing!

We are looking forward to what should truly be a weekend to remember with the 36th Annual Tucson Folk Festival! We are living in unusual times and, in light of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, will require face masks and social distancing procedures at our event.

Each stage has varying protocols, so please visit our website for more information. Thank you for being considerate of your fellow music-loving peers and keeping our festival safe!
