The Kerrville Folk Festival Foundation each year presents The Kerrville Folk Festival and the Fall Music Festival, The Kerrville Folk Festival, our flagship event, was founded in 1972. It is the longest continuously running music festival in North America and is a Mecca in the songwriting community. The Festival kicks-off the Thursday before Memorial Day and runs for 18 straight days and nights with activities for all ages focused on nurturing and developing artistic expression, especially the art of songwriting, in a loving, family friendly environment.
The Kerrville Fall Music Festival (formerly called Kerrville Wine & Music Festival) or “Little Folk” as some call it, has a similar musical format to that of the Kerrville Folk Festival, but seminars featuring Texas Wines & Texas Craft Beers are included. This 3 day event held over Labor Day weekend combines camping, music, and the best wines Texas winemakers and beer brewers have to offer. In addition to afternoon and evening concerts. The seminars include food morsels paired with the vintners choice of wines and brewers choice of beers.
The two words that seem to come up most when people describe the festivals is “magic” and “transformational.” We invite you to and create your own magically transformational experience, and learn why so many come back every year.
