Evanston Folk Festival 2025 Ticket Info
Experience the vibrant spirit of the Evanston Folk Festival, a celebrated annual event held at Dawes Park that showcases an impressive lineup of folk, acoustic, and roots music. Set to return in 2025, this festival features performances by renowned artists such as The Honey Dewdrops, The Mammals, and local favorites like Evanston native, Americana singer-songwriter Emma Hill. Beyond the concerts, attendees can participate in engaging workshops on songwriting and the music industry, making it a must-visit for music enthusiasts. The festival has pioneered innovative experiences, including headphone-based late-night performances introduced in 2018, and has been recording select performances since 1995 for archival purposes.

The Evanston Folk Festival also honors military veterans and active service members with free admission, demonstrating its commitment to community and appreciation.
