Fans can look forward to an enhanced VIP festival experience at Trailblazer, a new glamping option and the addition of the festival’s second stage dubbed “Next From Nashville,” a platform established by Live Nation’s sister festivals and known for “shining the spotlight on new talent” (Rolling Stone) and propelling Nashville’s hottest acts. The “Next From Nashville” stage lineup will be announced in the coming months.

TrailBlazer Festival’s destination-worthy setting at Hunter Mountain Resort “showcases the commanding authority of the Catskill Mountains; lets music lovers bask in warm days and crisp nights; and reminds us all just how far the region’s artistic legacy extends” (Poughkeepsie Journal). Continuing to establish itself as a summer-staple “mecca” (The Journal News), fans traveling from all over can expect an abundance of onsite interactive activities, thoughtfully-selected food vendors, a lineup that offers the genre’s best entertainers and more in 2020.
