At the Wintergreen Music Festival, music is more than something you hear—it’s something you experience. Set against the breathtaking beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains, the Festival invites you into a vibrant summer of powerful performances, intimate encounters, unexpected discoveries, and joyful connection. From the majestic sound of the Wintergreen Festival Orchestra and the bold, energetic spirit of Roots & Rhythms to the athletic artistry of chamber music, the relaxed camaraderie of Mix, Mingle & Music, and the rare intimacy of In-Home Concert Specials, every experience offers its own way to connect with extraordinary musicians and one another.
Whether you come for a breathtaking mountain concert, a surprising musical moment, a glass of wine with friends, or a deeper glimpse into the lives and artistry of musicians, Wintergreen Music is a place to slow down, lean in, and experience music in ways that stay with you long after the final note.
