What to expect
Henderson Bluegrass returns to Water Street Plaza on Saturday, October 17. The city lists the family-friendly event as free and describes 2026 as its third year.
The published city calendar gives an 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. window. Bluegrass performances are the focus, with food-and-beverage vendors and a vendor village adding places to eat and shop between sets.
Plan your visit
The city’s event page highlights artists’ bluegrass credentials, while touring musician Tray Wellington independently lists an October 17 Henderson Bluegrass appearance. Visitors should check the final running order when choosing an arrival time.
Admission is free, but food and merchandise are purchases from the participating vendors. The city points to public garages and lots in the Water Street district for parking. This event takes place one week after Aki Matsuri at the same plaza, so use the Bluegrass date when planning a visit.
