Parkfield Bluegrass Festival 2023


We're looking forward to seeing May 11-14 for the 2023 Parkfield Bluegrass Festival.
We'll be updating this site regularly so please check back often.



BMSCC and its members are proud to feature:



For the past 23 years music fans in steadily growing numbers have savored Parkfield's natural beauty and peaceful ambiance. Every Mother's Day weekend finds this sleepy little paradise transformed into a veritable bluegrass dream. Nature's soothing sights and sounds combine with the soulful high lonesome sound of bluegrass music. It's an experience that almost defies description - live bands on a cozy stage in a backyard setting that makes you want it to never end.

Dozens of acres of flat "boon-dock" style camping sites, plenty of shade, and hot showers available.
