To our Pickin’ in the Pines Family, Our hope had been to deliver a positive update to our COVID-19 message for the 2020 festival, however, with the uncertainty of the pandemic the time has come to postpone the 15th Annual Pickin’ in the Pines Bluegrass and Acoustic Music Festival and reschedule for 2021. The festival is now rescheduled for the weekend of September 17, 18 & 19, 2021. All 2020 tickets will be honored in 2021. If you stick with us, knowing that your tickets will be valid for Pickin’ in the Pines 2021, we appreciate it! If you need a refund, please see the information below. Please know this decision has not come easily. We have discussed and explored many scenarios and contingencies to resolve the challenge of providing a safe environment for all, but sadly we have not found a responsible way forward. We know this is more than disappointing news, however, the health and safety of everyone involved from our music loving festival patrons, to our hard working staff and volunteers, incredible artists and crews, loyal sponsors and vendors and our local and neighboring communities is of utmost importance. We are excited to announce that most, if not all, of our 2020 lineup will be joining us in 2021 so you can look forward to the same, much anticipated festival. A list of confirmed acts will be announced very soon with single day tickets going on sale at the time. Tickets will remain on sale at current Advance ticket level pricing until July 1, 2021 at which time ticket prices will increase to the Festival ticket level pricing. In the meantime, any support you can provide to our artists through online purchases would [...]
