Klamath Music

Festival Update: 
Thanks to the incredible support of the community, Klamath Music’s year‑round work in the Basin continues to grow significantly. To steward that growth and take a vital, timely next step toward delivering long‑requested services in the Basin, the Klamath Music Festival is currently on pause.

Our 2026 festival was a tremendous success, but the momentum of our ongoing programs continues to accelerate, and community needs are increasing. Concurrently, the time, resources, financial investment, and logistics required to produce an annual festival with excellence have expanded significantly—requiring us to decline opportunities throughout the year that could have made a meaningful difference for musicians and audiences alike.

This strategic pause allows us to rise to meet growing demand and focus our efforts where they have the greatest immediate impact—supporting artists, venues, and program partners throughout the entire year. It also gives us time and space to build key ecosystem elements that pave the way for a future sustainable festival, while contributing to the growth of numerous community events across the Basin in the meantime.

Watch for some exciting news on this front in early 2027!
