The biggest event of the year is coming up and you’re not going to want to miss it!
Chinook Fest is a 3-day country and folk music festival in Jim Sprick Community Park, set against a backdrop of the nearby mountains. We’ll tell you everything you need to know, including where you can get your tickets!
Music
There are so many artists playing Chinook Fest, from national acts to local bands or singers. You may have heard of The Cadillac Three (“The South” and “Party Like You”) or Stoney Larue (“First One To Know”), but you’ll find new favorites in Hannah Dasher (“Drinkin’ Out Loud”), Kara Hesse’s folk-style take on classic covers, and Yakima-bred American Honey Band – Audre has some serious vocal talent!
