Ticket Information:Get Your Tickets Here

From August 2 to 4, 2024, Watershed Festival is snapping into summer and inviting every member of the Shedder Chat to leave the group chat and walk straight into The Gorge Amphitheatre in George, Washington. 

That’s because they wouldn’t want Shedders to miss out on the best weekend of this blazing hot season, especially with the headlining trio of three country music artists who don’t need introductions — Old Dominion, Luke Bryan, and HARDY. This is Bryan’s fourth top-billing stint at Watershed, with his first in 2013, followed by another one in 2017. Then, in 2023, he joined Cody Johnson and Keith Urban in the primetime slots.

But wait, there’s more. They’re set to take the stage with a stellar slate, including Riley Green, Terri Clark, Cole Swindell, Dylan Scott, Koe Wetzel, and The Cadillac Three. The event will also feature the return of top touring DJ, remixer, and producer Dee Jay Silver to keep the party going between sets and late night at Next from Nashville Stage.

Aside from the performances, they’re also hosting a Speedy Fun Run on August 3, which is free to all attendees. Festival goers can also check out the hottest new cars on the road at Chevy Zone and grab some prizes and giveaways while you’re at it. For VIPs, there’s an exclusive Body Marbling activity to level up the festival look with unique body paint.

And here’s an important tip: Plan ahead for your trip. There’s no public transport to the amphitheater. The closest Greyhound stop is about 14 miles away in Quincy, and the nearest Amtrak stop is in Wenatchee, 45 miles from the venue. But you can opt for a short flight from Sea-Tac Airport to Pangborn Airport in Wenatchee, where there are a number of rental car options. You can park the car during the day for free at the venue, but it’s first come, first served. 

In the event itself, wristbands should already be registered to enter. You also need to follow the bag policy: Hydration packs (i.e. camelbaks) that are 1.5L or smaller and clutch-style bags 6” x 9” (15cm x 23cm). All other bags larger than 6” x 9” (15cm x 23cm) must be smaller than 12” x 6” x 12” (30cm x 15cm x 30cm) and clear.
