Grass in The Glades is a two-day camping extravaganza featuring the region's best jamgrass bands, food vendors, and craft vendors at The Glades Festival Grounds.

MEETUP PEOPLE: This is a non-hosted event. 1 hour 40 minute drive away from Pittsburgh. Just a cool music festival with camping in Fayette County about 9 miles away from Nemacolin Woodlands. I (Frank aka Big Kahuna) have been there before and its worth your time. If you are not into camping you can get a hotel nearby there are a bunch in this area about 10 miles away from the festival/campgrounds. I was here for two festivals last year and they both had superior music and since i was cooking there superior food ;-). It's a good place, use the fb event page if you have any questions.

Nestled in the Laurel Highlands right on the WV/PA Border in Gibbon Glade, PA, Grass in The Glades offers free rough camping and two days of great music in a family friendly atmosphere at an affordable price.

Camping is easy and available for both tents and RV's (no electrical hookups). Kid's are more than welcome, in fact, they are encouraged. Did we mention that kids under 18 are free? Yes. FREE.

Bring an instrument, there will be bonfire pickin' and grinnin'!!!
