Asheville Music Festivals

Here in Asheville, the rhythm of the mountains meets the beat of the city at our electrifying music festivals. From bluegrass to indie rock to hip-hop to world music (and everything in between), Asheville's music scene is as diverse as it is vibrant, and our festivals are the ultimate celebration of that diversity. Join us as we dance under the stars at the iconic LEAF Festival, where world-class performers from across the globe come together to create unforgettable experiences, or feel the energy pulsating through the city streets during AVL Fest, where local, regional and national talent take center stage in venues across the city for a showcase of creativity and passion. Whether you're tapping your toes to traditional Appalachian tunes or discovering the next big thing in indie music, Asheville's music festivals offer something for every music lover.
