In 1965 Bill Monroe founded the Bean Blossom Bluegrass Festival to bring his friends together
to play the high lonesome sound he pioneered. Today, under new management, the memorial festival
keeps his memory alive through four days of the very best bluegrass has to offer. Boasting the
top talents in bluegrass, this festival draws pickers, grinners and listeners from near and far.
The hillbilly music tradition goes back hundreds of years, but it was Monroe, with his high-mountain tenor
and unique mandolin playing, who made bluegrass what it is today. This music is celebrated all weekend
with the acoustical instruments and vocal harmonies of small groups of musicians. Since bluegrass
attracts pickers as well as listeners, you just might find as much entertainment walking around the
campground as on stage.
Now believed to be the site of the oldest continuous annual bluegrass festival in the world, Bean Blossom's natural beauty has been enhanced by the careful grooming of the festival grounds. Colorful flower beds exist where none had been before; roads and campsites are named for performers and faithful bluegrass fans; a walking trail is marked where Bill Monroe always took early morning walks around his property; and soon the lake will be equipped with fountains to combat algae and beautify the scenery. The walls of the office, museum, and gift shop are lined with rare historic photographs. Couple all this with top-flight bluegrass talent, which Dwight Dillman always books, and you have the formula for a wonderful entertainment experience that you will long remember. DirectionsTake 1-65 exit Columbus, Indiana.Take 46 West 15 miles to Nashville, Indiana. Bean Blossom is 5 miles North of Nashville, Indiana on St. Rt. 135. |
