Vermont based folk group, Woods Tea Co on Stage 1 at the Walnut Valley Festival. With around 15,000 attendees, the Walnut Valley Festival in Winfield, Kansas is one of Kansas' largest seasonal events. Although officially a four day event, Walnut Valley attendees start assembling at the Festival nearly a week in advance and a music crawl is held in downtown Winfield on Tuesday evening before the Festival. The 52nd year of the bluegrass and acoustic music festival will be September 18-22, 2024. Walnut Valley Festival hosts international acts, championships for instrumental performance such as bluegrass banjo & old time fiddle, and well over 100 food, crafts and music venders. The Walnut Valley Festival has 4 official stages and several less official. Stage 1 has the grandstand, but there is music everywhere with multiple options at the same time. It is unusual to walk more than 50 paces and not hear music coming from somewhere.
Attending the Walnut Valley Festival is also a chance to do some bargain hunting. Every year mNy Winfield residents hold yard sales during the Festival. For the best selection, don't wait until the weekend, early bird sales start during the week.
