Don't delay booking your accommodations for the weekend!

No camping is allowed at Lakeside Park (Village rules) which is part of the reason we try to keep ticket prices low. For some suggestions, please visit the accommodations link at the top of this page. There are a variety of places to stay in and around Mayville - some even walking distance to the Park.

If you get stuck, feel free to give us a call (see the "contact" page), and we'll try to give you a hand.

Welcome to the Mayville Bluegrass Festival! We are a community supported, all-volunteer organized event in the heart of beautiful Chautauqua County. The festival is held at Lakeside Park throughout the weekend, and in a variety of bars and restaurants Saturday night. The park and late-night venues are all within the Village of Mayville on the shores of Chautauqua Lake.

Founded by local musician Bill Ward and the local Chamber of Commerce in 2002, the festival’s mission has remained constant: to present world class bluegrass music in a family-oriented environment at the lowest cost possible for the entire Chautauqua County community and beyond.

We hope this web site answers most of your questions and helps you on your way to enjoying future festivals with us! If you can’t find what you’re looking for, click the "contact" link above and send us an email. We’d be happy to hear from you.
