Wednesday Night Bluegrass is a free concert series hosted by Staunton Parks and Recreation and features local and regional bluegrass talent.

In the southeastern frontier of Pennsylvania’s Pocono Mountain Range lies the small town of Wind Gap. The mountains are famous for outdoor activities and other wonderful pursuits for those seeking the space and solitude that is unique to a playground such as nature has provided here! The town of Wind Gap is relatively quiet but each June, just up a winding tree-lined road from the town proper, magic fills the air! It’s the magic of the annual Wind Gap Bluegrass Festival. During this time, Wind Gap means music, the fellowship of campfire stories, and that favorite back-country recipe, skillfully prepared by one or more “Deep Woods Chefs”!

Celebrating our 26th year in 2023, the Stringbean Memorial Bluegrass Festival honors Jackson County native and beloved Grand Ole Opry star David ‘Stringbean’ Akemon.
