Pilgrimage Music & Cultural Festival is a two-day event transforming The Park At Harlinsdale Farm into an oasis of music, food, and culture set against the natural amphitheaters and vistas of this former walking horse farm located in Franklin, TN. Renowned musical acts, many performing acoustically, will be presented on wood-clad stages reflecting the area's historic aesthetic. In addition to artists performing their own sets, Pilgrimage will feature Pilgri-mashups where one-of-a-kind pairings of musicians collaborate with one another on stage as well as the first-ever Kitchen Stage and Sippin' Stage and Little Pilgrim's Landing specifically for kids. The region's best food and drink will be on display as well as numerous local artists and artisans creating an all-encompassing festival experience.
2-Day Early Bird passes and VIP packages are available at a limited price of $169 (2-Day pass) and $399 (2-Day VIP package) and Single Day Passes will be available when full schedule is announced.
