Hoot, Holler & Sing Spring Bluegrass Campout: Shaniko

The Hoot Holler & Sing Campout is a one-of-a-kind weekend of performances, community, and pickin’ hosted by Shaniko Music Sanctuary. Set against a stunning outdoor backdrop and within historic old-west buildings, this intimate gathering brings together musicians, songwriters, and music lovers for campfire jams, collaborative workshops, and unforgettable live performances. By day, you’ll connect, create, and learn; by night, you’ll sing under the stars, swap stories around the fire, and celebrate the joy of making music together. Whether you come to play, listen, or simply soak it all in, Hoot Holler & Sing is where harmony meets community.
