Founded by Duane Betts (of Allman Betts Band) and his wife & designer, Lisa Hadley Betts, The Horseshoe Music Festival is back for its third year. This time it’s bigger, louder, and groovier than ever. Set for September 12 & 13, the festival has a new home at the Teton County Fairgrounds in Jackson, Wyoming, and promises a weekend packed with music, art, fashion, wellness, and some seriously good food.

Musically the festival continues with theme nights hosted by Duane Betts & Palmetto Motel and featuring the Horseshoe Family Band. Friday night will be ‘Skulls & Peaches’ night, a tribute to the catalogs of the Grateful Dead & The Allman Brothers Band. Saturday night will feature the return of the ‘Soul of the South’ theme. A night of music that will range from Otis Redding to The Marshall Tucker Band. Fans can expect great musical openers, a few local acts as well as some surprises!
