Raleigh Wide Open Music Festival

Raleigh Wide Open is coming to downtown on Oct. 3-4, 2025. This festival, presented by PNC Bank and produced by PineCone, continues the tradition of a  bluegrass festival along the street of downtown Raleigh and in Red Hat Amphitheater. Like the previous festivals, Raleigh Wide Open will feature music on multiple stages, food and drink, art vendors, and fun for the whole family. Best of all, it will be free! (Except for ticketed events in Red Hat Amphitheater.)

In addition to bluegrass, the festival will present some of the very best in folk, Americana, gospel, and more. You’ll find some familiar names but can look forward to plenty of new discoveries, too.
