Sierra Nevada World Music Festival 2023

Arts and Entertainment

May 17, 2023

From: Sierra Nevada World Music Festival

We are back!  Since 1994 Sierra Nevada World Music Festival has been an iconic part of the California festival circuit, bringing music lovers together in a family-friendly setting for three magical days. Founder and programmer Warren Smith envisioned a unique mix of authentic roots-reggae and global music trends, based on conscious music that brings together artists whose lyrics are life-affirming and embrace a positive message. This came to fruition with so many memorable performances over 25 years. With Warren’s passing in 2021 and the Covid-19 pandemic, the festival has been on hiatus.  This year, the time is right for us to gather again in celebration of Peace, Love & Music. The beautiful forests and rolling hills of Mendocino County are our home, and we look forward to welcoming you!  SNWMF 2023 is for Warren Come celebrate with us!
