Bear Shadow hosts beloved bands from all over the country in Highlands, North Carolina for a long weekend of music and fun in the mountains. “When we had to find a new venue last year because our original spot in Highlands didn’t allow for the right amount of social distancing we were so afraid we were going to have to cancel.” says Casey Reid of Eleven Events.

Performances begin on Friday, April 29th and end Sunday May 1st. On Friday and Saturday performers will be onstage from 5:00 pm to 10:30 pm. On Sunday performances are noon to 5:30 pm. There are three performances nightly. Get tickets here - https://bearshadownc.com/
