After canceling in 2020 and postponing April 2021’s reboot, Old Settler’s Music Festival planners will host their 34th annual gathering of roots-music artists and fans, now slated for Oct. 21-24.
A limited amount of tickets, priced at 2020 levels, will go on sale today for those not already holding 2020 passes. Observance of all current COVID-19 protocols will be followed, including proof of vaccinations completed at least 14 days in advance or negative test results within 48 hours of entry for every participant aged 12 or older. Full details and FAQs about COVID-19 safety measures are posted on the Old Settler’s website.
Stages, attractions and facilities will be arranged to provide extra room for attendees to maintain safe social distances, without sacrificing the friendly vibe, laid-back charm and sense of community that led to the festival’s 5thplace ranking on USA Today’s 2019 list of North America’s top 10 festivals. Old Settler’s has also been busy refining its 145-acre permanent home with amenities including a fully electrified campground powered by renewable green energy, eliminating noisy generators.
