Every spring, Jackson Hole closes out the ski season with one of the valley’s most anticipated events: Rendezvous Music Festival. Set against the dramatic backdrop of the Tetons, the annual festival transforms Teton Village into a high-altitude concert venue where skiers, riders and music lovers gather to celebrate the final stretch of winter.
The 2026 festival takes place March 27–28 at the base of Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, bringing a lineup that includes Grammy-winning psychedelic rock icons The Flaming Lips, jam-band powerhouse Umphrey’s McGee, and high-energy opener DJ Blake Horstmann. The weekend also kicks off with a free Friday show under the Aerial Tram featuring hip-hop legends Souls of Mischief, closing out the resort’s “Road to Rendezvous” concert series.

While the concerts themselves are a highlight of Jackson Hole’s spring calendar, those looking to turn the festival into a truly elevated experience should consider the VIP Experience, which offers exclusive perks, premium viewing areas and curated hospitality throughout the event.
The VIP Experience: Front-Row Energy with Mountain Luxury
For festival-goers who want more than general admission, VIP tickets provide an upgraded way to enjoy Rendezvous—combining the excitement of a live concert with the comforts of a luxury ski resort. VIP guests gain access to a dedicated entrance, allowing them to skip long lines and enter the venue quickly. Once inside, they can enjoy a private lounge area with comfortable seating, heaters and prime views of the stage, creating a relaxed environment between performances.
Perhaps the biggest draw for music fans is the exclusive viewing area located close to the stage, offering a more intimate perspective on the performances while still maintaining space to move and socialize. Beyond the music itself, the VIP package leans heavily into Jackson Hole’s renowned hospitality. Guests are treated to complimentary drinks and curated bites from festival partners and local chefs, bringing a taste of the valley’s culinary scene into the festival experience.
Additional perks include private restrooms, phone-charging stations and commemorative festival merchandise, including a limited-edition Rendezvous YETI mug. Together, these amenities create a festival environment that feels both energetic and comfortable—ideal for those looking to celebrate the end of ski season in style.
A Festival Built for Skiers and Music Lovers
Part of what makes Rendezvous so unique is its setting. The concerts take place in Teton Village at the base of Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, where the snow-covered Tetons provide a dramatic natural amphitheater for the performances. Many visitors spend the day skiing or snowboarding before heading down the mountain for the evening concerts. It’s a distinctly Jackson Hole experience: carving turns by day, live music by night.
General admission this year is $51 and grants access to the venue. Kids under 12 are free, up to two kids per GA ticket holder, and one child under 5 per VIP ticket holder. But for those hoping to avoid crowds and secure premium access, VIP tickets offer a more relaxed way to enjoy the weekend while still being right in the middle of the action.
Make It a Full Festival Getaway
Visitors traveling to Jackson Hole for Rendezvous Festival (or locals looking to enjoy a staycation) can take advantage of special lodging packages that pair spring skiing with the weekend’s concerts. Offers include discounted stays when booking multiple nights, along with complimentary general admission festival tickets based on occupancy and availability.
Additional packages bundle lodging and lift tickets, making it easy to turn the festival into a full spring ski vacation in Teton Village—just steps from the music and mountain action.

The Grand Finale of Ski Season
Rendezvous Festival has long served as an unofficial send-off to the winter season, bringing together locals, visiting skiers, and music fans for a weekend that blends alpine adventure with live entertainment. With world-class musicians, stunning mountain scenery, and an atmosphere that feels part ski party and part music festival, the event has become one of Jackson Hole’s signature spring traditions.
For guests seeking the ultimate way to experience it, the VIP Experience offers front-row access, curated food and drinks and a comfortable lounge environment that elevates the entire weekend. In a place where adventure and celebration often go hand in hand, Rendezvous Festival delivers both—set to the soundtrack of live music beneath the Tetons.
