The Haystack Music Festival will be making its debut in Downtown North Bend on July 12, from 6 p.m. to midnight. The festival will feature 21 bands throughout 17 storefronts, showcasing a wide variety of roots-inspired music, including folk, blues, bluegrass, country and singer-songwriter styles.
Up to 1,000 attendees are expected at the event. City streets will remain open during Haystack. Participants will utilize sidewalks and crosswalks as they walk to each venue. JazzClubsNW volunteers will assist as crossing guards during peak hours.
Funds raised will support JazzClubsNW, a local nonprofit organization committed to supporting live jazz performance and education. Venue schedules, tickets, performances, and more information can be found at www.jazzclubsnw.org/
