Jackson Hole Music Festivals come in all shapes and sizes. From summertime's Grand Teton Music Festival featuring the country's top classical musicians to winter's popular Rendezvous Music Fest with exciting national headliners to Snow King's "King Concerts" atop its summit, there's something for everyone.
Below is our roundup of the best of the fests.
Rendezvous Fest
The annual Jackson Hole Rendezvous Music Fest [pictured above] is held in early April: 2025's dates are April 4th and 5th. The free, two-day festival with local and national bands performing at the base of Jackson Hole Mountain Resort and on Town Square is one the highlights of the winter.

Past festival headliners have included Nathaniel Rateliff and The Night Sweats, Portugal: the Man, Uncle Kracker and the Zac Brown Band.
Grand Teton Music Festival
The Wall Street Journal has named Grand Teton Music Festival "one of the best places to hear classical music in the summer."
As far as Jackson Hole Music Festivals go, this is the granddaddy. The Grand Teton Music Festival presents world-renowned classical musicians, soloists and orchestras as a part of its seven-week summer concert series. Performances take place in Walk Festival Hall in Teton Village as well as other locations in Jackson. The hall is celebrating its 64th series in 2025.
During the summer of 2025, the festival will run from July 3rd through August 23rd. If you're out here for the Fourth of July, you're in for a treat as GTMF's annual "Patriotic Pops" will be performed in the Festival Tent at the Center for the Arts' park. For the full schedule, visit gtmf.org.
