My Own 2 Hands



Americana Project




The Sisters Folk Festival is a three-day celebration of American music, from blues to bluegrass. Many greats have graced the stage since the initial Festival in 1995, including, Ian Tyson, Natalie MacMaster, Chris Smither, Dave Carter, The Waybacks, John Gorka, Ruthie Foster and more.

The Festival is held the weekend after Labor Day every September in beautiful Sisters, Oregon. The Festival is home to five stages, with our main venue at the Village Green Park in downtown Sisters.

Located in the foothills of the Cascade Mountain Range and the Three Sisters Wilderness Area, the community of Sisters, Oregon is a wonderful place to live and visit. Below are some links of interest for anyone who is thinking about coming out for the Festival.

The list of outdoor recreational opportunities in and around Sisters is endless, with mountains, rivers and lakes at your back door. Bike or horseback ride the many beautiful mountain trails, or golf at any number of first rate courses. Gift, home & garden, clothing and antique shops abound for the shopper in your group, or just relax and enjoy the clean air and incredible mountain views. There is truly something for everyone in Sisters.

Be sure to check out our venues and the generous hosts who provide them:

Angeline's Bakery and Café
Bronco Billy's Ranch Grill & Saloon
Depot Deli
Sisters Art Works
