Postpone 2026
Postponing the Olalla Americana Music Festival in 2025 and 2026 is heartbreaking. We love it dearly as you do! It brings the best music festival experience around the sound.
We are not kickin’ back…we are busy helping produce a new 2 day Olalla festival…the Olalla Lavender Festival. It will be held at 8 different Olalla locations. It kinda like a Olalla tour with live music, vendors, food trucks, art & crafts, with lavender being taught, cooked and sold. The main host is at the Olalla Grange. Over the two days 10 bands will take to the stage and around the property will have classes, children’s activities and vending. You then pick-up and drive to the next destination to enjoy what they have to offer.

Americana artists by nature are American musicians who infuse roots music to create a sound that channels the spirit of traditional American music which includes elements of country, rock, folk, blues and bluegrass.
Festival information:
Festival date is August 21, 2027. 11 am till dusk. The one-day festival features 8 regional and national music artists, great food trucks and regional fare, artisan handmade arts and crafts, old time craft demonstrations, local breweries featured in our beer garden, a variety of activities for children, and the legendary Berry Pie Baking Contest; all in the village of Olalla; a true idyllic setting.
The Olalla Americana Music Festival (OAMF) is a long standing event in Kitsap County. It began in 1991 as the Olalla Bluegrass Festival founded by the board of Directors of the Olalla Community Club. As its popularity grew over the years, we witnessed a larger opportunity to showcase the Americana genre from many talented individuals and groups in the communities of the Pacific Northwest and across the United States. Thus in 2016 the festival was re-branded as the Olalla Americana Music Festival, and, with its new name, began to shape its future as an entirely volunteer run music festival providing a full day of community engagement against the backdrop of American musicians and artist and YOU, as our guests.
